Anti-Bullying School Policy

It is the policy of the l District to provide a safe and healthy environment for the entire school community and promote mutual respect, tolerance, and acceptance. We will not tolerate behavior that infringes on the safety of any student. A student shall not intimidate or harass another student through words or actions. Such behavior includes direct physical contact including hitting or shoving, verbal assaults, teasing or name-calling and social isolation or manipulation. This policy applies on school grounds, going to and from school and at school-sponsored activities. It extends to all members of the community, male, female, adults, and students.

WHAT TO DO IF I AM BULLIED?

1. It is best to tell someone. Tell a teacher or your parent or another student. You don’t have to face this on your own.
2. It also helps to ignore a bully. Don’t give them any attention and they may stop.
3. Remember, it is against the law to bully others.

You have a right NOT to be bullied. We will not tolerate bullies at El Dorado Middle School. Tell your parent or an administrator if you are being bullied. You can complete a Bullying Report form and it will be investigated.
