Vandeventer and FISD has implemented the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program to help educate our students about bullying. The Olweus Bullying Prevention Program (OBPP) prevents or reduces bullying in elementary, middle and junior high schools (with students ages five to fifteen). OBPP is not a curriculum, but a program that deals with bullying at the schoolwide, classroom, individual, and community levels.
