Creative arts students at Moss Bluff Middle School will give a dramatic production next week about the negative effects of cyber bullying. Performances are scheduled for 12:20 p.m., 1:15 p.m. and 2:10 p.m. on Friday, April 24. Helen Daniel, school creative arts teacher, said the production will focus on teen choices, peer pressure and acceptance. She said students will perform several anti-bullying skits for their classmates to spread awareness about bullying behaviors in schools. “We are trying to hit home with the students and show them how to deal with different things that I know they are encountering,” Daniel said. “The performance will show teens making the wrong decisions. There will be topics like pressuring teens to send inappropriate photos, the consequences of doing that and how it spreads quickly on social media.” Daniel said before writing and scheduling the presentation, she got feedback from her students about what problems they have been facing in school. “I wanted this to be something that really meant something to the kids,” Daniel said. “It’s more than a story. They are actually having to deal with this.” Daniel said the school, along with the district, is dedicated to teaching and training students and teachers on how to prevent bullying behaviors. She said her creative arts students want to help other students to know they can make a difference in stopping bullying at their school. “We are hoping that this presentation will make kids think before they speak or click that ‘like button’ on social media,” Daniel said. “They need to choose their words wisely, make decisions carefully and know the impact of what they say and what they do.”
