Striving for success is our goal.
Bullying:
Bullying encompasses a continuum of behavior that involves the attempt to gain or assert power and
dominance over another, with no legitimate purpose. Bullying involves repeated negative behavior,
carried out over time with a purpose to harm another person physically or mentally, or to benefit
oneself through behavior which causes such harm to the other person. Bullying involves either
taking advantage of a real or perceived imbalance of power, or is used to create an imbalance of
power. Bullying may involve an attempt to cause fear. Examples of behaviors that fall into this
category include, but are not limited to: inappropriate and unwanted physical contact (including
hitting, kicking, shoving, & pushing); intimidating and threatening comments (oral, written, or
electronic); name calling or put-downs (selecting or using a nickname which is intended to
embarrass or humiliate); manipulation or coercion of another student to do something he or she does
not want to do; setting someone up to be bullied or encouraging a student to engage in bullying;
sharing or starting rumors or gossip; hurtful teasing or making fun of someone; hiding or destroying
someone's belongings; or shunning or excluding someone from a group or activity in order to
embarrass or humiliate the person.
A. Teacher’s Disciplinary Actions
A teacher is responsible for utilizing, as appropriate, the following
Measures to maintain discipline:
• Give a verbal reprimand
•. Notify parent/guardian—confer with as necessary
• Assign constructive assignments/tasks
• Require a student/teacher conference
• Develop a behavior contract with the student.
• Refer the student to the counselor
If the misbehavior continues, the student will be referred to the
Principal/designee for further action. Serious offenses may require
direct referral to the principal/designee. Teachers may refer to principal
or designee a student any time they believe the child will benefit from
that action. Teachers utilizing one of these in-school discipline actions
need not use one of them listed before utilizing any other.
