Bullied in school? Speak up...

Was your child bullied in a McHenry County school? Were you bullied in school?

The Northwest Herald is working on a special project that focuses on bullying, to be published this fall.

Barbara Coloroso wrote an important book on this topic titled The Bully, the Bullied, and the Bystander. Call Read Between the Lynes (815.206.5967), and Arlene will order it for you if she doesn't have it in stock.

To share your own local story and have it considered for publication, contact Chelsea McDougall at cmcdougall@shawmedia.com or call her at 815.526.4419. She would like to hear from you, whether you were bullied, did the bullying or are the parent of either.

There are enough local stories to fill several books, even from District 200 schools alone.
