Parents of students at Corner Brook Intermediate have formed a new community group to address violence and bullying inside the school. We took you to the first meeting
Parents of students at Corner Brook Intermediate met Wednesday evening to talk about a dramatic increase in bullying and violence at the school. About 20 people shared stories of what their children have experienced, and what they'd like to see done to protect them. Charges of assault and assault causing bodily harm were laid against two students in February. It's alleged that a 15-year old male and a 14-year old female attacked a student. The student was taken to hospital and treated for non-life-threatening injuries. Sabrina Ellsworth created the Facebook Group 'Corner Brook Families Against Violence in Schools,' and organized Wednesday's meeting. She spoke with the CBC's Alex Kennedy.
