  • b. Repetition: Bullying behaviors happen more than once, or have the potential to happen more than once.

Harassment: 

• Bullying based on one or more of the Protected Classes as set forth in the Board’s Policy on Nondiscrimination and Access to Equal Educational Opportunity may also constitute a violation of the School District’s Anti-Harassment Policy.
