Bullying/Cyber Bullying

The Franklin-McKinley School District community recognizes that schools must be physically and emotionally safe for all students in order to promote and support academic achievement, responsible citizenship, and student attendance. The Franklin-McKinley School District will not tolerate behavior that infringes on the safety and emotional well-being of any student or adult. Board Policy 5131.2 affirms that all students and staff have a right to safe and supportive school environments, free from threat, harassment, hazing, discrimination, intimidation, or any type of bullying behavior, including online bullying (cyber bullying).

Bullying Definition

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services defines bullying as, “Aggressive behavior that is intentional and that involves an imbalance of power or strength. Typically, it is repeated over time.”

What is Cyber Bullying?
