Bullying Prevention and Reporting
|
Dear members of the District 92 community,
Will County School District 92 is committed to having a safe and supportive learning environment for all of our students. To that end, we have developed a new tool which allows acts of bullying or other activities which negatively impact the learning environment of our schools to be reported and submitted electronically. Bullying is conduct which cannot be tolerated in our schools or community. District 92 defines bullying as: any severe or pervasive physical or verbal act or conduct, including communications made in writing or electronically, directed toward a student or students that has or can be reasonably predicted to have the effect of one or more of the following: (1) placing the student or students in reasonable fear of harm to the student’s or students’ person or property; (2) causing a substantially detrimental effect on the student’s or students’ physical or mental health; (3) substantially interfering with the student’s or students’ academic performance; or (4) substantially interfering with the student’s or students’ ability to participate in or benefit from the services, activities, or privileges provided by a school.
Too often, students who are the victims of bullying feel uncomfortable in coming forward to report these issues. To help students, parents and community members to share concerns, we have added an on-line bullying reporting instrument to our web page. The link to the bullying report can be found under this message and will remain available on the website. All reported instances will be investigated. While we encourage parents and students to come directly to a trusted adult at their school to report concerns, we are committed to further opening the doors to communication through such tools. As a result, individuals making reports have the option to provide their contact information or remain anonymous.
There is no single solution to bullying. Among our foundational commitments at District 92 is to teach and reinforce pro-social conduct to all of our students. We look forward to continuing to partner with our families to develop future generations of outstanding citizens and neighbors.
Sincerely,
Peter M. Sullivan
Superintendent
