(Policy 3207 and 3207P)
In the Eatonville School District, we do not tolerate bullying or harassment of any kind. By law, incidents of harassment, intimidation or bullying which are reported to school or district staff require an investigation. Parents often want to know the outcome of these investigations and express their feelings on social media. These postings on social media often state that the ESD “doesn’t do anything.” According to The Federal Education Rights Privacy Act (FERPA, a federal privacy law) parents have certain protections regarding their children’s education records. This means that district personnel cannot divulge information about students and what occurs with discipline.
We ask that you are careful with social media and remember that you are reading a one-sided view. There is always the other side of the story, the side not seen because, as employees of the ESD, we do not respond to comments on social media. Administration cannot share how situations are handled. If you see something on social media that causes concern, please contact your child’s school.
Please understand that kids can be mean. NOT ALL MEAN BEHAVIOR IS BULLYING.
● Bullying is defined as aggressive behavior that is repetitive and exhibits an imbalance of power.
● We do not tolerate bullying or harassment and encourage students who are victims to report.
● Bystanders are also encouraged to report. There are systems in place in every school to report bullying and harassment.
● In addition, the Eatonville School District website has a reporting form under “Families.” Reporting can be anonymous. Here is the direct link: https://eatonville-wa.safeschoolsalert.com/
