As a pro-active measure, Sheriff Falcon is having his staff conduct anti-bullying seminars in local schools.

On Thursday, St. Elizabeth School in Paincourtville was center stage for one of those classes.

The issue has become one of national concern as bullying has led to a number of juvenile casualties throughout the country.
