Olweus | Anti-Bullying
  • Last week, students were presented BSSD’s Olweus Bullying Prevention Program.

  • It is the BSSD’s mission to ensure every student develops the skills and dispositions to thrive in a global community as a productive and collaborative citizen through innovative education distinguished by: a culture of understanding differences and showing kindness.
