Students at Grenfell Elementary Community School joined youth nationwide in National Pink Shirt Day on Feb. 29. Students wore pink shirts to spread the message of anti-bullying. Pink Shirt Day began in 2007 in Nova Scotia, when a ninth grader was bullied at school for wearing a pink shirt. Two senior students, David Shepherd and Travis Price, stepped in, wearing pink in support of the student and to send a “stop bullying” message.
