NATIONAL BULLYING AWARENESS AND PREVENTION MONTH
This week kicks off National Bullying Awareness and Prevention Month. Every morning, there will be a different message about what you can do to stop bullying! First of all, how do you define bullying? Bullying occurs when someone says or does something intentionally hurtful and they keep doing it, even when you tell them to stop or show them that you are upset. Bullying can take many forms. It can be physical, like hitting, kicking, or punching. It can also be social or emotional, like using words to hurt someone, leaving someone out, or gossiping and spreading rumors. Bullying can happen at school, in your neighborhood, or online.Adults may not see when someone is bullied. This happens because bullying often happens outside the view of adults. This is why is important to report bullying to an adult! Adults want to know about it and stop it from happening.  

SPORTS 
The girls cross country team faced off against the entire SEC, including a Saline team that desperately wanted a win, and came out on top, going undefeated in the conference for the season.  As a whole, our team had an incredible twenty-one personal best times. Scoring for our team were Bekah A., who had back-to-back sub thirteen minute races, Ava R., Sydney D., Ally B., Emma B., who earned her fifth PR for the season, Katelyn D., and Brooklyn M., who is the only 6th grader to score for Bedford this season.  There were also impressive finishes by Sidney D., Aubrey V., Carly Z., and Anika H. Congratulations cross country team on a perfect record in the SEC! You earned your success through your hard work and dedication this season.

Rylee H. led the team with 8 kills.  Serving well for the Broncos was Megan W. with 12 points, London Z. and Alyssa D. with 7 points each.  Defensively, Rylee H. had 13 digs and Ella H. had 9 digs.  Setting well for the Broncos yesterday was Megan W. with 16 assists.
