I agree--you should congratulate them.

I attended a Catholic high school, so I made a point of saying that, regardless of whatever Leviticus or Deuteronomy says, Jesus himself said:

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Love your neighbor as yourself.
Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers, that you do unto me.
Let that person who is without sin cast the first stone.

But nothing there quite beats the wonderful simplicity of writing letters directly to school administrators.

It also makes it more effective to have a tool that can be used where there is an actual problem.
HIre a lawyer, or find a nice one who will draft it pro bono, and post it up with the IGBP videos so that bullied kids have a weapon they can use against their schools that are ignoring the issue.

Seems to me that also writing letters to school boards (in the wake of the McCance fiasco) asking pointed questions would have similar impacts.
