No Name-Calling Week January 23-27!
No Name –Calling Week is an annual week aimed at ending name-calling of all kinds, and providing inspiration to launch an ongoing dialogue about ways to eliminate bullying in communities.
No Name-Calling Week was inspired by a young adult novel The Misfits, by James Howe. The book tells the story of four best friends who grow tired of constant teasing in their middle school, and decide to run for student council on a "No Name-Calling" platform.
No Name-Calling Week was launched in March 2004. No Name-Calling Week currently includes over 40 national partnering organizations, including the National Education Association, the National Association of Elementary School Principals, the National Middle School Association, the National Association of Secondary School Principals, and the American School Counselor Association. It is imperative to address the problem of name-calling and bullying while children are in elementary school, as we work to provide a safe and caring environment in our schools and communities. |
