SBCUSD is committed to provide a safe and welcoming environment for all students. Bullying is defined as the harassment of students, intimidation, a hazing or initiation activity, ridicule, extortion, or any other verbal, written, electronic communication, or physical conduct, repeated over time, that causes or threatens to cause bodily harm or emotional suffering, creates a hostile learning environment, or disrupts the normal operation of a school, classroom, or school related activity.

Families, can you tell when your child is in a conflict versus a bullying situation?

Bullying occurs when the child experiencing the unwanted behaviors has less power socially, intellectually, or physically. If both children have a fair match of power, then they are experiencing conflict. Report bullying anonymously at sbcusd.com/ReportBullying or call (909) 880-6812. The end of bullying begins with you!
