Jackson Middle School Student Starts Y H8 Facebook Page
Jackson–Dylan Miller, a middle school student in Jackson has started a facebook page to bring awareness to bring awareness to those around him about the effects of bullying and racism. Dylan started the page in 2011 and “would love to see his page go global” and help spread the word of kindness and caring beyond his friends at school.
Dylan’s mother, Robin is also a guidance secretary at Dylan’s school and says she understands the impacts bullying has on teens, “It’s sometimes hard to convince a 13 year old that they are confident,” she said. ”I am so proud of the young man he is becoming. Working in a middle school I see [this] and also seeing all the hate in the world, Dylan doesn’t like to see any of it.”
The mission statement for Y H8? is kids helping kids…chatting, communicating, laughing, crying all about anti bullying.
Y H8 can also be found on twitter, official_yh8 .
Dylan is currently selling Y H8 bracelets for $1.00 and will donate the proceeds to charity.
