BULLYING (excerpt from High School Handbook)
Bullying manifests itself in many different ways. A bully is anyone who treats another in a cruel or abusive manner. Bullying is NOT a joke and people suffer damages from it that affect them for the remainder of their lives. There is verbal bullying, physical bullying and non-verbal bullying. Any and all types of bullying are unacceptable and appropriate disciplinary measures will be swift and decisive. All information regarding bullying behavior will be kept strictly confidential.
