Bullying Takes Center Stage at Film Screening Wednesday

An award-winning documentary will be shown as part of an ongoing effort to combat bullying in Greendale schools.

The award-winning documentary "Bully" will be shown at Greendale High School Wednesday night as efforts to combat bullying in district schools continue.

The film will be shown at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium. The event features an appearance by former Packer Gilbert Brown.

A nonprofit group, Greendale Against Bullying, is sponsoring the event. The group formed after a 17-year-old made a bomb threat during homecoming week and later told police he wanted to disrupt homecoming activities due to prolonged bullying.
