PASD Unity Day

In recognition of National Bullying Prevention Month, Port Allegany School District has engaged in activities to show support for bullying prevention. Earlier in the month, students and staff were asked to sign a banner in support of the idea that 'The End of Bullying Begins With Me.' On Wed., Oct. 22, students and staff of Port Allegany School District participated in Unity Day, an event sponsored by PACER's National Bullying Prevention Center, where people across the world are asked to wear orange in a message of hope, support and unity. Port Allegany High School's Peer Helpers were responsible for organizing the event in the district.
