“Edson Striving To Be
Bully Free”
Campaign started this Fall
The Town of Edson in partnership with Yellowhead Koinonia Christian School, Parkland Composite High School, Pine Grove School, Holy Redeemer Catholic High School, The Edson & District Boys & Girls Club, Youth Interagency, Edson R.C.M.P. and The FOX Radio have launched an Anti-Bullying Campaign in the Town of Edson.
The goal of the project is to educate youth and the community as a whole about the effects of bullying.
Schools and organizations in Edson recognize that bullying is becoming an increasing problem. This partnership ensures that the community is well informed, students are given tools to protect themselves and that when bullying does take place the appropriate measures are taken.
Let’s make Edson a bully free community!
Upcoming events:
