No one should suffer through bullying and harassment. Students have a right to feel safe and welcome when they arrive at school. School districts have an obligation to provide a safe environment. Take a quiz and learn the facts about bullying.

Every school district in Washington is now required to adopt new state model anti-bullying and harassment policies and procedures. Districts must also provide training to all staff and students about the new policies and procedures. These requirements protect students from harassment and make it easier for them and their families to get help.

This is quite interesting to make a law for school in anti-bullying and harassment since these are some of the dilemmas that the school encountered today. These are really helpful and so good.
