Chris Scheufele presented at Burlington-Des Lacs Elementary on how to prevent bullying. Also pictured is Burlington-Des Lacs student Kimber Davy.
Kira Fischer, a counselor at Burlington-Des Lacs Elementary, noticed that commonly taught tactics to respond to bullying didn’t seem to be working.
An anti-bullying program developed by Chris Scheufele, a former teacher from Omaha, Neb., puts an emphasis on helping kids who are being picked on to help themselves and that seems to work better.
Scheufele, who spoke to kids at the school in Burlington Wednesday, said he doesn’t actually like the word bullying. He developed his methods after years in the classroom and discovering that typical ways to reduce conflict between children didn’t seem to be working.

West Virginia Governor s Office issued the following announcement on Feb. 10.
GOVERNOR JUSTICE: Okay. I sincerely hope everyone is doing as well as they possibly can be. With all that we ve gone through in this State. But I can tell you that the light of the world is shining on West Virginia right now. And if you don t believe that, you re just plain not thinking right.
I d like at this time to recognize some really, really special people, my family. Cathy and Jill are with us tonight and from beyond that, I want to go directly to my cabinet members. You know at this time, it is such a difficult time. You know, we ve got for all practical purposes, all my cabinet members watching virtually. But there is one that is watching from the heavens above, Dennis Davis. A man that we just lost. A man that was in charge of all of our vets in the State. A man, a man s man. That s all there is to it.
