Bullying Prevention & Reporting

Every student deserves to feel safe, respected, and supported — at school, on the way to school, and online.

You Can Speak Up

If something does not feel safe, you do not need to decide whether it legally qualifies as bullying before asking for help. Students, families, staff, and community members are encouraged to report concerns so the appropriate school or District staff can review what happened and determine the right response.

Recognize & Respond

Understanding Bullying & Cyberbullying

Bullying can include severe or pervasive physical, verbal, written, social, or electronic conduct that causes or can reasonably be predicted to cause significant harm, fear, interference with learning, or interference with a student's ability to participate in school services and activities.

Bullying

May involve physical acts, threats, intimidation, verbal or written conduct, harassment, social behavior, or other serious or repeated conduct directed toward a student.

Cyberbullying

May involve messages, texts, images, videos, social-media posts, online impersonation or false profiles, and other electronic communications. Qualifying conduct can originate on or off campus.

Not every conflict is the same. A disagreement, rude comment, or off-campus online post does not automatically meet the legal standard for bullying or school discipline. It can still be important to report the concern so students can receive support and staff can determine the appropriate response.
