No BullyingFord Middle School has no tolerance for bullying.
Students watched video clips illustrating the concept on the first day of school.
Students are encouraged to report bullying to their teachers and administrators. To
encourage students who may not want to come forward publically, we are providing an email
address where they can write their concerns. This address is
FordNoBully@allenisd.org
Here is more information on the subject. The following is
from pg 22 of the AISD Code of Conduct.
| Bullying is written or oral expression or physical conduct that a school
districts board of trustees or the boards designee determines: 1. To have the effect of physically harming a student, damaging a
students property, or placing a student in reasonable fear of harm to the
students person or of damage to the students property;
2. To be sufficiently severe, persistent, or pervasive to create an
intimidating, threatening, or abusive educational environment for a student. |
The following are Internet sites about bullying and
how to stop it. Because technology is readily available, cyberbullying is also a
