A new California state law, which will go into effect July 1, 2012 will require additional bullying training for administrators and simplify the process for victims of bullying to transfer schools. In addition, this new law will expand existing legislation to mandate that schools have comprehensive safety plans in place.
As legislation expands and changes, it is essential that districts have the ability and resources to adapt and comply with the law. With PublicSchoolWORKS’ Bullying Prevention-Administrators course, Administrators learn how to recognize bullying and intervene when bullying occurs and how cyber-bullying makes its way from the computer to the classroom. Most importantly, they will learn about the effects of bullying, the signs that someone is being bullied and how to stop bullying when it is seen happening. How is your school handing reports and acts of bullying? Share your comments with us on Twitter @PSWORKS.
