The story
On Monday morning, Leo finds a folded note under his reading book. It says, “Nobody wants you on their team.” Maya saw who left it, but speaking up feels scary. At break, Leo sits alone on the bench. Maya sits with him, tells him the note is not true and goes with him to tell Ms Harper. The class learns three words: Notice. Support. Tell.
