Abstract

To build a safe and supportive community in school climates, we first need to prevent bullying through healthy relationships and safety procedures, which will begin in the classroom. My theory is to start early on in school settings such as Kindergarten. I hope to build a plan to ensure an autonomous mindset that gives students, teachers, and staff a pure and wholesome thought process. This thinking will take some years to develop a nuanced expression. During this starting phase of Kindergarten, I hope to broaden the opportunity for students in elementary school to be role models for students of the same age and younger; this begins with weekly training for them. The design is that this learning will transition into the middle school setting to facilitate a bridge in learning about the middle school student climate. The design continues to bridge students' transition into high school, hoping to eliminate bullying in the high school climate. The mindset structure is the tool to reduce and eliminate bullying, with a nuanced mindset to pivot from daily bullying in school settings. The intent is for this process to govern higher education and into future employment. This is a small piece of the planning process and implementation process with the management of a programmatic solution to building safer school environments.
