October 10, 2012 (Sacramento):  Sacramento City Unified School District will hold a community bullying prevention training at Sutter Middle School tonight — October 10 — which is also Unity Day, a national event to promote tolerance.

October is National Bullying Prevention Month.

The training tonight – the second in a series of five – is free and open to anyone in the community who wants to learn more about keeping kids safe at school and in cyberspace.
