Bullying/Cyberbullying Resources
The IPA hosted over 300 educators at our Bullying/Cyberbullying Conference August 10, 2011 in Bloomington thanks to the generous support of conference sponsor Horace Mann. For those unable to attend, the following resources have been made available to assist your anti-bullying and cyberbullying efforts. Please do not hesitate to contact the Illinois Principals Association if there is anything we can do to help you create a safe learning environment for your students.
