(Grades 4-7) Children cannot learn if they're afraid to go to school. Raymond is a 12-year-old boy who lives with his grandmother. No one at school knows much about this quiet and shy boy. Raymond is often used as source of amusement and entertainment by a group of bullies led by two popular boys. Raymond is made fun of and teased on the playground, in the halls, in the classroom--anywhere a teacher is not around or when teachers have their backs turned. One day Raymond is accosted. As he pushes through the crowd of jeering boys, he runs into the street where he is hit by a car. Nobody meant for it to go this far...but it did. The video then focuses on the reactions of the bullies. Also included are bully-victim facts, suggestions for presentation, and follow-up activities. 25 minute video.
