I also have a 7th grader son who goes to school there at Tripp, he has come home almost daily this year reporting various episodes of bullying. He has made phone calls from home to the Vice Princaple who looks into it but stuff just continues for him. He is at the point that he prefers to miss school not caring what it will do his grades, just to get away from it all. He has had things happen on the bus and also at school. I am really glad to hear of another student stepping up and devastated to read she is having the same thing happen to her. I hope this will make administration open their eyes and really do something about this. All the children deserve a good education without other children bullying them.
