The students were invited to the White House in recognition of their efforts to fight against bullying and cyber-bullying.

A group of students decided to take the song “I Like It” by Enrique Iglesias, change the lyrics and tell the story of a girl who is being bullied.

Enrique Iglesias praised the students on a job well done on the song by mentioning it on Twitter and posting the song on his Facebook profile. The video has more than 60,000 views.

Congratulations Long Branch Middle Students. It is very courageous of you to stand up and fight against bullying and cyber-bullying.
