Day of Pink
Staff and students with the Rainy River District School Board will be encouraged to wear pink today (Tuesday) as a stand against bullying.
Shane Bliss, Chair of the Board's Character Education Steering Committee says the effort coincides with the national Day of Pink.
"It's a good chance for us to support this anti-bullying effort," says Bliss, "not just the students, but the staff too. We're doing this at the board office. We've got the schools involved."
Several other area organizations and businesses are also getting involved by having their employees wear pink.
