Bullying happens when someone hurts or scares another person on purpose and the person being bullied has a hard time defending himself or herself. Usually, bullying happens over and over. According to the Barbers Hill ISD Student Code of Conduct, bullying is defined in the following way:
Bullying is written or oral expression or physical conduct that a school
districtâ?Ts board of trustees or the boardâ?Ts designee determines:
- To have the effect of physically harming a student, damaging a
studentâ?Ts property, or placing a student in reasonable fear of harm
to the studentâ?Ts person or damage to the studentâ?Ts property; or
- To be sufficiently severe, persistent, or pervasive to create an
intimidating, threatening, or abusive educational environment for a
student.
Bullying can also happen online or electronically. Cyber bullying is when children or teens bully each other using the internet, mobile phones, or other cyber technology.
