This is not always bullying. Bullying and harassment is behavior that makes someone feel intimidated or offended. Bullying or harassment is unfair, one-sided, repeated and one person may be using their power over another person. What are Portland Public Schools rules about bullying? Portland Public Schools is committed to maintaining a learning environment that is free of harassment and bullying. Harassing or bullying is strictly prohibited. Students shall avoid any conduct or action that could be characterized as harassment or bullying. Students violating this policy shall be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including expulsion. (Administrative Directive 4.30.021-AD) You can find these rules if you go to pps.k12.or.us and search for: board policy 4.30.060-P The Oregon State law about schools and bullying can be found at : www.oregonlaws.org/ors/339.356 Are there particular students that might be especially vulnerable to bullying? When children perceived as different are not in supportive environments, they may be at a higher risk of being bullied. This includes but is not limited to lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT) youth; youth with disabilities or special health care needs. A child might also be bullied due to the religion or faith they practice; their race, ethnicity, or nation of origin. See PPS Anti-Harassment 4.30.061-AD for more information about how the above groups are considered a protected class. What do I do if I think my child is bullying others? Above all- remain calm. Ask questions and gather information. Review the school rules. Remember kids watch everything we do so we need to model respectful behavior and not bully or gossip about others ourselves. Talk to school staff who can help you and your child come up with a plan to change their behavior. See  HYPERLINK "http://www.cfchildren.org" www.cfchildren.org for more tips and tools. What do I do if I think my child is being bullied? Again, remain calm. Let them know you are glad they let you know what is going on and that you are going to help. Ask questions and gather information. Help them identify what has and has not worked in the past. Help them identify friends or other students who might support them. Think of solutions and generate a plan together and notify the school so they can be supportive. Remember to check back in with your child to see if the plan is working. Remember- most kids give their parents more accurate information if parents dont overreact. When would a bullying report be made to the school? If you have asked a person to stop inappropriate behavior and it does not stop or if you dont feel comfortable telling the person to stop-you can use a reporting form or you can talk to a trusted adult at your school. If you are witnessing a violent act like assault, call the police immediately and inform your school staff as soon as possible. Who can use the bullying reporting form? This form is for student and parent use. You can use it to report any student bullying you see at school. If there is concern about an adult bullying- you should speak directly to the principal. If your concern is about the principal you can contact the schools Regional Administrator. Do I have to put my name on the reporting form? You can make an anonymous report. However, consequences can not be applied to the person bullying if an anonymous report is the only information available about the situation. All reports are considered confidential. How long before someone looks at the bullying report I made? School personnel are required to respond in a timely fashion. For example- if you turn in a report at 3pm on Friday- it probably wont get read until Monday. With that in mind- if it is an emergency situation- go straight to a staff member. After investigation, school staff will then respond to the behaviors and provide support to the students involved. How do I know if my bullying issue has been handled? School staff can let you know if the incident has been handled but any specific consequences or discipline matters are confidential and can not be shared. A list of potential consequences for bullying can be found at: pps.k12.or.us then search pps: Administrative Directive 4.30.021-AD What if someone tries to retaliate or get back at me for making a report? If someone retaliates because of a bullying report they can receive disciplinary consequences. pps.k12.or.us then search pps: PPS Harassment and Bullying Policy 4.30.060-P What do I do if I witness bullying on my way to or from school? If you are witnessing an assault or other violent behavior- call the police immediately at 911 and then inform school staff as soon as possible. If a person is not in immediate danger - talk to a trusted adult about what to do and then let school staff know as soon as possible. You can also call the Youth Hotline for support after school hours at: 1.877.968.8491 What about cyberbullying? If cyberbullying occurs outside of the school day- the incidents shall be handled by parents, guardians, and police. If the cyberbullying incident occurs at school or creates a substantial disruption in the school environment- it should be reported to school staff. What does our school do to prevent bullying behaviors? There are lots of ways schools can support kind behavior and prevent bullying. Talk to your principal about what your school is currently doing. Where can I go online to get more information about bullying?
