What some fourth graders saw Tuesday they won't soon forget. A powerful message was heard loud and clear.

Dorchester's guidance counselor, Diane Fisher says she hopes the students she brought to the conference will be able to spread what they learned to others. "Hopefully the little group that i brought will recreate some of these things within their own classroom," said Diane Fisher.

The R.E.S.P.E.C.T.2 theatre group, showed the children a performance, about what can happen when bullying gets out of hand. Actor Brandon Rohe, believes that his contribution will help students in the future.
"I didn't realize how big of a problem or how much bullying was just a part of my life, its a part of every-body's life and it doesn't need to be," said Brandon Rohe.

At the end of the day the students learned anti-bullying tactics and ways to make sure their classmates are not victimized. Making Fisher believe the students will use the lessons they learned down the road. "My hope is that by the time they are in high school that they spend their time not worrying about how they will handle their emotions and who they are going to bully or if they will be bullied," said Fisher.
