Mohammed Fayoumi

Eighth Grade, Sunny Isles Beach K-8

Mohammed has taken a stand against bullying and fighting amongst his peers. He has chosen to intervene when many others do nothing or instigate other students to fight. Mohammed spoke up when a student was bullying another student and made sure that student would stop the bullying behavior. Later on, two other students were about to engage in a fight as one of them got mad and pushed the other one. Mohammed got in between both students and stopped them from fighting. Instead of taking his cellphone to record as many students would do, Mohammed chose to intervene and prevented a dangerous situation from escalating further.
