Cyberbullying Information:
Cyberbullying is bullying and includes all forms of harassment in cyberspace.
Cyberbullying is being intentionally cruel to others by sending or posting harmful material or engaging in other forms of cruelty using the Internet or other digital technologies. It includes, but is not limited to the following misuses of technology: harassing, teasing, intimidating, threatening, or terrorizing another person by sending or posting inappropriate and hurtful messages, text messages, digital pictures or images, or Web site postings (on social networking sites including blogs.)
Like bullying, cyberbullying is unacceptable. Students who feel that they have been the victims of such misuse of technology, should not erase the offending material from the system. Instead, they should print a copy of the material and immediately report the incident to a teacher, counselor, or administrator. All reports of harassment in cyberspace will be investigated fully. Consequences may include, but are not limited to, the loss of computer privileges, detention, suspension, and expulsion from school.
School rules and regulations may be applied to incidents occurring off campus if a student’s misconduct in the community disrupts the school learning environment or an individual student’s ability to be at school and/or learn.
