I wore that cord with pride because it represented to my classmates, friends and families that I was an \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/gabnow.org\/what-is-an-upstander\/\">Upstander<\/a>\u201d and proud to be one.  Although the information regarding what each colored cord stood for was written in our graduation program, I was still asked what each cord  stood for. I would always explain my teal one first, \u201cit means that I am an \u2018<a href=\"http:\/\/gabnow.org\/what-is-an-upstander\/\">Upstander<\/a>,\u2019 a <a href=\"http:\/\/gabnow.org\/peer-ambassador-programs\/\">peer ambassador<\/a> who works with kids, teaching staff, and the community on solutions to putting an end to bullying.\u201d  <\/p>\n<p>I was honored to have had my hard work with GAB be recognized through the wearing of the teal cord so everyone will see. Now I will always be reminded of my goal to help end bullying everything time I think of my graduation day.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; specialty=&#8221;off&#8221;][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_image admin_label=&#8221;Image &#8211; Pamphlet&#8221; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;off&#8221; use_overlay=&#8221;off&#8221; sticky=&#8221;off&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; force_fullwidth=&#8221;on&#8221; always_center_on_mobile=&#8221;on&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; src=&#8221;http:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/GARD-PAMPHLET.png&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.60&#8243; alt=&#8221;GREENDALE GRADUATION PAMPHLET&#8221; \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Greendale High School graduating Student Peer Ambassadors adorned &#8220;GAB Teal&#8221; cap cords in support of their affilaloaruon with GAB throughout their high school years<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":33219,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2,74,33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-33216","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-news","category-peer-ambassadors"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33216","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33216"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33216\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33219"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33216"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=33216"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=33216"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
