This session will center on Boonville School District’s efforts to address bullying as a community-wide issue, rather than an issue isolated to school districts. The focus will be on research-based, innovative efforts and supports implemented in their district. It will describe their partnership with the University of Missouri – Mizzou Bullying Lab and how the lab is supporting them. The session will also include information on the school district’s success in addressing bullying as a community-wide concern.
