GENERAL SCHOOL POLICIES

ANTI-BULLYING POLICY
The Outlook Academy board of education prohibits acts of harassment or bullying. The board
of education has determined that a safe and civil environment in school is necessary for
students to learn and achieve high academic standards. Harassment or bullying, like other
disruptive or violent behaviors, is conduct that disrupts both a student’s ability to learn and a
school’s ability to educate its students in a safe environment. Demonstration of appropriate
behavior, treating others with civility and respect, and refusing to tolerate harassment or bullying
is expected of administrators, faculty, staff, and volunteers to provide positive examples for
student behavior.
