Unity Day: Stop Bullying- Reflection

Yesterday, October 9th was Unity Day here at Maria-Catalyst (and the MKC). We had a very touching reflection about the internal and emotional struggles of our students. Everyone, every person on Earth, carries an emotional baggage with them. You may not know about it, see it, or recognize it-- but it's there.

"Abby's Story- A Bullying Story"

The video showed what can actually happen if you bully others. The consequences are real-- and touched many of us in a serious way. 

After viewing the video, the sharing happened. Students shared stories of familial loss, struggles, and at one time or another being bullied. So many experiences were so similar, and it opened their eyes to a shared experience among their peers. It was one of our most awesome Reflections yet!
