BULLYING POLICY. Purpose A safe and civil school environment is necessary for scholars to learn and achieve and that bullying causes physical, psychological, and emotional harm to scholars and interferes with their ability to learn and participate in school activities. Bullying has been linked to other forms of antisocial behavior, such as vandalism, shoplifting, skipping and dropping out of school, fighting, using drugs and alcohol, sexual harassment, and violence. It is the goal of the La Academia Partnership Charter School Board of Trustees (“Board”) to create a learning environment in its school community where all scholars feel safe and supported, are protected from bullying, and are able to succeed academically and develop socially and emotionally into responsible, caring individuals. The Board asks every scholar, with the support of their parent(s), guardian(s) and the adults at school, to commit to the following principles, which will apply to everyone on school property and at school-related activities: ● I will not bully others. ● I will try to help anyone I suspect is being bullied. ● I will work to include scholars who are left out. ● If someone is being bullied, I will tell an adult at school and an adult at home.
