SALT LAKE CITY — Students took an anti-bullying pledge during the Stand4Change Against Bullying Day at Willow Canyon Elementary School in Sandy on Friday.
Ken Kragen, the creator and organizer of "We Are the World," and "Hands Across America," organized the event and is hoping it will let the world know that bullying will not be tolerated in our schools and communities.
The pledge told students to speak up when they see others being bullied and to tell others that bullying is wrong. It asked them to stand up for others being bullied, and to "defeat the label by not calling names, spreading rumors or using mean or hurtful language in school or on the internet."
