Like how both characters grew up, the people that help them through all of the bullying, and the end result of it all. Peter Houghton grew up with a golden boy brother, who was also one of his bullies until his death the previous year before the shooting and always made him feel unimportant in his own home. His parents weren’t very helpful when Peter was getting bullied. Even from a young age Peter’s mom wanted him to be strong about it and deal with the bullying rather than actually help him through it. He also had a best friend Josie Cormier, a best friend who used to defend from the bullies until she decided to leave him for the popular crowd in sixth grade.So after so many years and years of bullying, with no support from his family and due to the fact that he only had one friend who was also being bullied, Peter took it into his own hands to end the harassment and he went into his school and enacted his revenge. Unlike Peter, Jodee grew up as an only child in a loving supportive family. She had friends the moment she was in school, she wasn’t popular but she had friends. She never had a constant friend that always defended her and was always there for her. Her parents were supportive of her when she told them about the bullying, even if she may not of liked their methods of helping her which was her going to the therapists, they were still supportive. As she grew up she began to notice

Rad Korsaski is an 11-year old male student with parental instability and documented Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

He is an 11-year-old boy that is very loved and respected within his family. He is very sweet, always joyful and playful. Since he was born, everyone that he encountered quickly fell in love with him due to his charisma. From all the memorable moments, I have shared with Steve; I can describe him as a kid that is outgoing and loveable; aiming to always find the best of people. For example; for many of his classmates, he is seen as a leader when in the playground and with adults. I think that the reason of this is because he is an amiable boy that seeks to involve himself in all educational topics to keep up with any conversation he finds himself in, with proven facts he can confirm. Due to his wise and mature attitude towards grasping and being intelligent, besides of his short years of life; I have realized that Steve is a unique brother that has also empowered me in my college studies.

In the Gaston county school district alone there are approximately 20 elementary schools out of a total of 55. A lot of these schools are located in rural areas like that of Chapel Grove Elementary or in suburban areas such as that of Gardner Park Elementary. Each one is going to be different. Classroom size is going to vary as well. My son’s second grade class consists 19 students where as a school such as Gardner Park may have more. My nephew, who is private school, is in a classroom with only 9 other children.

Before developing a personal intervention program for Alex we need to have a meeting with Alex’s parents to hear their point of view. Everyone has Alex’s best interest at heart and the intervention program is to help where we can. Once the problem has been identified, the correct support services should be advised. These can be from within the school; the services of a social worker; psychologist or other specialists that might be relevant to Alex’s need.
