Bullying: Intervention & Complaint Managment
Onsite

Parents are holding school districts civilly responsible for investigating and intervening in incidents of bullying. And the courts are backing them up, holding both schools districts and individual employees liable for failing to stop the bullying through education, intervention and investigation.   Schools must have a policy that outlines detecting and investigating incidents, rumors and complaints and for remedying each situation. Educators and staff must be trained to identify the warning signs that bullying is taking place and site administrators, counselors and others who receive complaints from students, parents and staff must know exactly how to proceed if the district is to protect students from harm and to protect itself from liability. This course meets and exceeds those requirements.
