Senseless Death at Rutgers…
Cyber-bullying continues to be a problem- seems like we read a tragic story every week! I wanted to reiterate to everyone why the law is so clear and definitive… when we hear about cyber-bullying, affecting one of our students, (even if it occurs off school grounds) we must report it to the police. A serious subject that must be treated with the same serous response!
In the few incidents that have been reported to school administration over the past four years, we have consistently referred the matter to the police, yet it is always astonishing when parents look to me and wonder why I took this drastic step. "The Police! It's just kids being kids. Making bad choices."
It might be. But that bad choice is bullying! It is wrong and hopefully tragedies like the ones I have read in the papers over the past few weeks can be averted. This issue is serious and we will continue to treat it as such!
Till next time...
