 Questions?

 School-wide bullying prevention program intended to help clarify for students, staff and parents what defines bullying and how it differs from peer conflict.

 Bully  -Before labeling behavior as bullying, it must meet the three following criteria:  REPEATED - Does the behavior happen over and over again?  INTENTIONAL - Is the behavior intentional, or on purpose?  INTIMIDATING - Is there an imbalance in power, or does the behavior create feelings of helplessness, intimidation, or fear?  -If all three criteria are met, the behavior is labeled bullying and will be handled accordingly by school administration.  -If only one or two of the criteria are met, the behavior is most often labeled peer conflict and students are encouraged to practice conflict resolution skills and seek assistance from adults when needed  -Four primary types of bullying (verbal, physical, social, and cyber) are reviewed and students are provided with strategies if they or someone else is bullied  -Students are encouraged to create a positive climate for learning, tolerance and acceptance
