​

Kern High School District BP 5145.3 states “Unlawful discrimination, including discriminatory harassment, intimidation, or bullying, may result from physical, verbal, nonverbal, or written conduct based on any of the categories listed above.  Unlawful discrimination also occurs when prohibited conduct is so severe, persistent, or pervasive that it affects a student's ability to participate in or benefit from an educational program or activity; creates an intimidating, threatening, hostile, or offensive educational environment; has the effect of substantially or unreasonably interfering with a student's academic performance; or otherwise adversely affects a student's educational opportunities.”

BULLYING HARMS EVERYONE

Students who are the target of bullying behavior and those who exhibit bullying behavior toward others may suffer serious, lasting consequences. Bullying is…

• A Deliberate Act:  To cause emotional or physical harm to another individual.
• An Imbalance of Power:  Those who bully use their power—such as physical strength, access to embarrassing information, or popularity—to control or harm others. Power imbalances can change over time and vary in different situations, even if they involve the same people.
• Repetition: Bullying behaviors that occur more than one time or have the potential to happen more than once.

​

​

​

BULLYING IS AN UNWANTED, AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR THAT INVOLVES A REAL OR PERCEIVED IMBALANCE OF POWER BETWEEN INDIVIDUALS WITH THE INTENT TO CAUSE EMOTIONAL OR PHYSICAL HARM.

​

Bullying can be physical, verbal, or social/relational. Bullying involves repetition of a deliberate act.
