Bullies may get expelled from one county and may have to attend
schools in another county and this could create problems for
administrators of that school system.
This group can partake in implementing the policy and educating all
stakeholders on the consequences of bullying behavior and
understanding the legal implications.
Increased awareness and vigilance is key. This group needs be
involved in the process of when an incident occurs during school
hours and after hours. This group needs to be involved in swiftly
addressing and reporting bullying behavior.
Leveraging simplified reporting structures would encourage school
bus drivers to report incidences and be mindful of problematic
