Hi, my name is Samuel James and I’m a student at Renzulli Academy. I was a finalist in the Connecticut’s Kid Governor Statewide Election. I’m now a member of 2026 Kid Governor Tessa’s Cabinet!
I ran for Kid Governor on a platform that addresses cyberbullying. I chose this platform because kids should not feel scared or unsafe when they are online interacting with friends, making new friends, using social media, or gaming.
My three-point platform address cyberbullying is:
- Stop.
- Block.
- Screenshot.
Since the statewide Election I have done some research on social media apps and hope to contact some of the companies to learn more.
If you would like to support my platform, you can…
- Screenshot offensive posts on social media.
- Block students who are sending offensive posts so they cannot send any more messages.
- Share this strategy with someone who might need it.
If you have other ideas for how we can address cyberbullying, email me at Sam@CT.KidGovenor.org. You can also visit CT.KidGovernor.org/cabinet2026 to learn about the other Cabinet Members and their platforms.
