Texas Law STATE LAW: The Texas Education Code, Chapter 37 Section 37.001, requires each independent school district in Texas to have a local policy that prohibits bullying, harassment, and making a hit list and ensures that district employees enforce those prohibitions; and provides, as appropriate for students at each grade level, methods, including options, for: Under the requirements of 37.001(a)(8), the school district is also required to have specific options developed under local policy that are appropriate to each grade level that provide for preventing and intervening in student discipline problems, including bullying, harassment, and making hit list. Under Texas Education Code, Chapter 25, Section 25.0342 a parent has an opportunity to transfer their child to another campus if their child has been determined by the school to have been bullied. We recommend that you review the local policy on bullying and harassment. Make sure that all staff are aware of the policy and have current training on how to recognize and prevent bullying and harassment. REPORTING: It is important for each student to report any bullying or threats to the nearest teacher or adult at school as soon as possible so school officials may take appropriate action. Additionally, teachers and adults in the school should be aware of how students are treating each other and to intervene when inappropriate behavior is recognized. It is important that your staff are well trained and ready to take the appropriate action. Further, students should feel comfortable to approach staff with their concerns.
