HARASSMENT, INTIMIDATION, AND BULLYING TRAINING

We all share a responsibility to maintain a safe and secure learning environment for every student.

  • The district follows a Harassment, Intimidation, and Bullying (H.I.B.) policy and procedure
  • Policy 3207 is available online
  • Volunteers have the same responsibility as staff to report and respond to concerns
  • In many cases, the best way to help is to report concerns to school staff
  • Reporting forms are available:
    • In school offices
    • On school websites
    • On the district website

What Is Harassment, Intimidation, or Bullying?

H.I.B. includes actions that:

  • Physically harm a student or their property
  • Interfere with a student’s education
  • Create an intimidating or threatening learning environment
  • Disrupt the operation of the school

Forms of H.I.B.

Harassment, intimidation, or bullying can take many forms, including:

  • Demeaning comments
  • Slurs, rumors, or jokes
  • Put-downs
  • Drawings or written messages
  • Pranks or gestures
  • Hurtful verbal or physical actions
  • Images or messages shared with others

Online and Social Media Behavior

H.I.B. can also happen online. Examples include:

  • Posting mean or hurtful comments
  • Pretending to be someone else
  • Encouraging others to exclude someone
  • Sharing private or confidential information
  • Sending harmful messages

How to Report H.I.B.

If you see or hear something, report it.

You can report concerns by:

  • Completing an online form on a school or district website
  • Filling out a printed form from a school office
  • Dropping off or emailing a completed form
  • Contacting a school principal by phone or email

Reporting with SafeSchools Alert

There are five ways to report using SafeSchools Alert:

  1. Phone
  2. Text
  3. Web
  4. Mobile app
  5. Email

What Happens After a Report

All reports are taken seriously.

Possible responses may include:

  • Meetings with students and families
  • Additional education or training
  • Safety planning
  • Behavior agreements
  • Appropriate discipline

Harassment is not acceptable and will be addressed to ensure student safety.

When in Doubt

If you are unsure whether a situation qualifies as H.I.B., share the information with a school administrator.

I understand how to report Harassment, Intimidation, and Bullying
I know where to pick up/turn in the H.I.B. forms in the school
I know how to access the HIB form online
I know that I can also report H.I.B. via safeSchools ALERT

REVIEW POLICIES AND GUIDELINES

Please view this policy: Maintaining Professional Staff/Student Boundaries

I understand there are two kinds of boundary invasions – those that are appropriate because they have educational or health reasons and those that are inappropriate.

I understand that I am responsible for following District procedures regarding maintaining professional staff/student boundaries, incident reporting, and consequences of engaging in boundary invasions.

I understand that while school volunteers are not legally mandated reporters of suspected child abuse, the District's expectation is that volunteers speak to an administrator promptly regarding any inappropriate incident, conduct, or behavior.
