October is National Bullying Prevention Month. 🧡

Every student deserves to feel safe, respected and included. At Texas City ISD, we can all help by choosing kindness, including others and speaking up when someone needs support.

If you experience or witness bullying, reach out to a teacher, counselor or trusted adult. Asking for help is an important step, and you don’t have to handle it alone.

Together, we can build school communities where every student feels they belong.
