A big part of the 7th grade curriculum at our school in Ohio is a History Fair project.   My partner Lydia and I thought long and hard about what we wanted to present to our teachers and fellow classmates.  We wanted a topic that was interesting to kids our age, and something that would make an impact and want students to make a difference.  We initially researched the negative effects of social media in teens.  We found the David’s Legacy website and knew instantly that we had found our topic!  We personally know kids who have been cyberbullied and wanted to bring awareness to our school.  Mrs. Molak was kind enough to let us interview her over the telephone and we were so saddened by her and David’s story that we knew we needed to do our part in preventing this from happening to anyone in our school and community.  We handed out the #DavidsLaw stickers to our entire school and asked them to take the pledge.  We still get a sense of pride when we see our classmates walking down the halls with the stickers attached to their phones and textbooks.  Our principal was very impressed by our project and asked for our opinion on bullying in our school.  The entire 7th grade also had the opportunity to present and display our project back boards to parents one evening.  Several parents approached us and told us that their kids have been cyberbullied and commended us on bringing awareness to this.  We will never forget David’s story, and will continue spreading Mrs. Molak’s message…”The person on the other side of the screen has a soul.  You never know the day or battle that person is facing.  So always choose kindness.”
