BULLYING DEFINED:

CDE's Bullying Prevention & Education Best Practices and Model Policy:

"In Colorado, bullying is defined in C.R.S. 22-32-109.1(1)(b) as: Any written or verbal expression, or physical or electronic act or gesture, or a pattern thereof, that is intended to coerce, intimidate, or cause any physical, mental, or emotional harm to any student. Bullying is prohibited against any student for any reason, including but not limited to any such behavior that is directed toward a student on the basis of his or her academic performance; or against whom federal and state laws prohibit discrimination upon any of the bases described in section 22-32-109 (1) (ll) (I). This definition is not intended to infringe upon any right guaranteed to any person by the first amendment to the United States Constitution or to prevent the expression of any religious, political, or philosophical views (p.4)."



OUR Definition of Bullying:

Bullying is unwanted 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. The children who are bullied, those who bully others, and those who witness the behaviors may have serious, lasting problems. (source: stopbullying.gov)
