KAYSVILLE — Students in brightly colored T-shirts inundated the lunch room at Centennial Junior High School on Thursday in an effort to start what they called an “anti-bullying revolution.”

As the students sat to eat their lunches, several of their peers — all wearing fluorescent yellow T-shirts emblazoned with the words “Stand Up to Bullying” — performed a flash mob by dancing to the front of the room and stomping to upbeat music.

KAYSVILLE -- From the time the school bell rings until her 13-year-old son arrives home, Emily Smalley worries if he is going to get home safely.

"My kid comes home and I think, 'Oh good, he made it safe,'" Smalley said.

A few weeks ago, her son Andrew crashed his bike in the middle of the road on his way home from Centennial Junior High School. Andrew claimed that the sidewalk, where he had been told to ride, was too full of pedestrians to accommodate his bike.

CLEARFIELD -- Gone are the days when seventh- and eighth-graders at North Davis Junior High School searched the depths of their backpacks for homework assignments. The students are now using netbooks -- small, lightweight laptops, bought by grants and owned by the school -- in classrooms and at home to complete and turn in their assignments.
