Repeat offenders must know when they've run out of chances. Behaviors such as these will not be tolerated by school staff or administrators. A third action by the school is to provide students with information, both verbally and in writing, which will better prepare them to be more accountable for what they do inside and outside of school. We must work with parents to help our students understand the difference between doing what's right and doing what's wrong. Parents and staff must do whatever they can to become role models for students in terms of displaying desired behaviors.
Students learn from what they see adults do.
Peer harassment continues to be a problem area for school districts. Sarcastic comments which are intended to hurt others are not acceptable. Also not acceptable are any bullying words or actions from one student toward another. As staff, we can't turn our backs when we hear inappropriate comments made by students. It is wrong for students to say or do anything which could be considered to be sexual harassment.
