Bullying is an unwanted, aggressive behavior among school aged children that involves a real or perceived power imbalance. The behavior is repeated or has the potential to be repeated over time.  

To be considered bullying, the behavior must include: 

  • Deliberate: A bully’s intention to hurt someone. 

  • An Imbalance of Power: Kids who bully use their power—such as physical strength, access to embarrassing information, or popularity—to control or harm others. Power imbalances can change over time and in different situations, even if they involve the same people. 

  • Repetition: Bullying behaviors happen more than once or have the potential to happen more than once. 

DASA COORDINATOR

All staff are trained in the area of DASA (Dignity for All Students Act). New York State’s Dignity for All Students Act (The Dignity Act) seeks to provide the State’s public elementary and secondary school students with a safe and supportive environment free from discrimination, intimidation, taunting, harassment, and bullying on school property, a school bus and/or at a school function.

More information surrounding the Dignity Act can be found on the NYSED webpage.

"At least one employee in each of our school buildings is designated as a DASA coordinator. The coordinators, who are trained in accordance with the New York State Education Department (NYSED), are charged with investigating reports of harassment, bullying, or discrimination in their respective buildings."
