Patch Mahwah, NJ --Two Mahwah High School sophomores are finalists in the County Prosecutor’s anti-Bullying video contest, and they need help from the community to make it to the next step of the competition.
According to High School Principal John Pascale, the school is excited to support Marisa Ganley and Olivia Marelic, who created an anti-bullying video to enter into the BCPO’s third annual “Don’t Stand by for Bullying” educational contest. Their video is one of two tenth grade finalist entries now posted on the Prosecutor’s website.
The public can vote for their favorite videos through April 12, and then the winner of the contest will be announced at the county SNAP Conference at the end of the month. Winning entries will be displayed on the Prosecutor’s website.
“This contest is a cooperative effort with schools to send the continual message to young people that bullying will not be tolerated,” Prosecutor John Molinelli said in a release. “This contest is a valuable tool to assist educators in encouraging students to report a problem rather than be a silent bystander.”
So now, the High School is asking for your help!
