Our board policies, administrative plans, and school handbooks strictly forbid bullying, as well as any other form of harassment, intimidation, or discrimination. (Bullying may take various forms, including without limitation one or more of the following: harassment, threats, intimidation, stalking, physical violence, sexual harassment, sexual violence, theft, public humiliation, destruction of property, or retaliation for asserting or alleging an act of bullying.
