You may not always get along with your peers. To help you decide what is going on and what action to take, below is some information that may be helpful.
What's Going On?
Teasing: Everyone is having fun, no one is getting hurt and everyone is participating equally.
Conflict: No one is having fun, there is a possible solution to the disagreement. Both parties are contributing to the problem.
Mean Moment: Someone is being hurt on purpose. The mean moment is a strong response to a feeling or emotion.
Bullying: A deliberate or intentional behavior using words or actions, intended to cause fear, intimidation, or harm. Bullying may be a repeated behavior and involves an imbalance of power. It is serious enough to negatively impact the student's well being.
What Should I do?
If you have questions, see the school counselor or complete the Student Concern Form. The school counselor or principal will review each form and follow up.
