a rule in your school that no weapons, even toy ones, are allowed on campus? Well, surprisingly, there’s a “water-pistol ambush” game in a private high school called St. Ann’s in Brooklyn, New York. It’s a school tradition where a senior judge (who doesn’t participate in the game) assigns each team a student to attack with a water pistol.

He didn’t enjoy school like most kids, it was a chore or a punishment for him. He played on multiple sports teams such as hockey, softball and football at school and outside school.

The Missing Counterpart to Bullying Prevention Over the past several years, bullying has been on the rise among students. In an effort to combat this, thousands of schools across the country have adopted anti-bullying programs. Most standard programs teach students about what bullying is, how to prevent bullying, and how to stick up up for students who are being bullied. While these programs have good intentions, they have many gaps that cause bullying to continue to occur. It is clear that…
