Through this lesson, students are encouraged not to stand by when another student is being mistreated. They are encouraged to stand up together and "fight back" with appropriate, research-proven strategies that are assertive but not aggressive. In addition, students have a chance to examine their friends in order to determine if they have a friendship that should be discontinued.
When students stand up together and do the right thing, even when no one is looking, they are leaders and can make a difference in the school community.
