Student Discipline/Bullying
Schools have made significant progress in improving their climates which has led to a decrease in student reports of bullying.  However, bullying remains a significant issue both for students and in the perceptions of parents.  It is imperative that school administrators redouble their efforts to promote good digital citizenship in students and respond promptly and appropriately to reports of bullying or harassment.  However, school officials cannot leap into action without considering their legal limitations.  Karen Haase will provide a legal update on the boundaries that limit school administrators in this important area.  She will review the situations in which schools must act, will examine the actions that administrators cannot take action and will provide practical advice for how to proceed in situations which are ambiguous.
