BULLYING
The Board of Education prohibits bullying at any district location. Bullying occurs when one or more students threaten, harass, or intimidate another student through intimidating/threatening words or actions which may include, but are not limited to, notes or messages (written or electronic), comments, slurs, innuendos, teasing, jokes or epithets.
HARASSMENT
Harassment, including sexual, can be anything from teasing to racial slurs and physically pushing someone around to intimidate them. This also includes hazing behaviors such as recognizing a student’s birthday by physically harming the person involved. We are dedicated to do all we can to stop this type of behavior. Since this usually occurs when adults are not present, it is important for students to inform their teachers or school personnel when this happens. The administrator will handle harassment complaints sternly and with the utmost confidentiality in order to protect students from being harassed.
SEXUAL HARASSMENT
* Verbal harassment: Offensive comments, jokes, slurs, graphic or verbal comments of a sexual nature.
* Visual harassment: Offensive posters, cartoons, graffiti, drawings, objects or gestures.
* Physical harassment: Unwelcome or offensive touching, pantsing, impeding or blocking of movement.
Sexual harassment will not be tolerated and will be dealt with in a disciplinary manner. Students should be aware that certain serious violations are against the law and will be dealt with accordingly.
BOY / GIRL RELATIONSHIPS
Students are expected to show maturity and respect in their relationships with other students. Any displays of affection such as holding hands, hugging, or kissing are considered inappropriate for school.
