Bullying has become a pervasive issue in educational environments, particularly in middle schools where social dynamics are complex and ever-changing. This study examines the psychological, academic, and social effects of bullying on middle school students. A mix of qualitative and quantitative methods was employed, including surveys and interviews from a diverse student population. The findings reveal significant associations between bullying experiences and negative outcomes, including anxiety, depression, decreased academic performance, and social withdrawal. The implications of these results highlight the need for effective anti-bullying programs and interventions in schools.
