Falling Branch Elementary School students were visited by nationally-acclaimed anti-bullying representative Jay Banks, this week. He presented the students with a campaign called S.T.A.M.P., and taught them how to STAMP out the bullying at their school. Students were both entertained and educated by Banks' display, while teachers were given information throughout the program. Local celebrity and former Falling Branch student, Melissa Devore, was present. Devore is currently pursuing a pageant dream. Banks introduced Devore as a positive role model for the children to look up to.
