Daniels Canyon Elementary believes that all students have the right to a safe and healthy school environment. Bullying is against our school policy and will be responded to quickly and effectively. It is important to know exactly what incidents are considered bullying.
Rude vs. Mean vs. Bullying
Rude – Saying or doing something that hurts someone else without trying to be mean.
Mean – Saying or doing something on purpose to hurt someone.
BULLYING- When one or more people hurt others over and over again on purpose. There is an imbalance of power and it is one-sided.
