With increased media attention surrounding cyberbullying, many states are creating laws and mandates to prevent future cases from arising. In June of last year, for example, three Texas girls were sued because they posted a threatening video about another girl on Facebook. The father of the girl who was threatened filed a defamation of character lawsuit against the three girls.
Texas House Bill 1942 encourages staff training in preventing, identifying, and responding to reported incidents of bullying. PublicSchoolWORKS offers a series of courses to address this Bill. This training is available for all school staff and officials to better assist them in handling and responding to incidents of bullying.
