at Lee Pollard we participate in this
special day to show others that it’s

Our school has been taking place in
this this day for two years now and
we make it as fun as possible for

about each and every one of the students that attend Lee Pollard High
School. On anti-bullying day we have
a lunch time activity with prizes and
