Abstract
In the final chapter, Rosen, DeOrnellas, and Scott integrate the different perspectives of key school staff and provide common themes. They note that in addition to students and key school staff members already considered in the text, anti-bullying campaigns can benefit from an even wider range of contributors including education support professionals, parents, and community members. Based on the recommendations provided in each of the chapters, they discuss possible school-wide bullying prevention and intervention efforts and outline characteristics of successful programs. This chapter concludes by offering suggestions for overcoming potential challenges and implementing a whole-school anti-bullying initiative.
