Hi, I actally was a member a few years back and even posted a bit, but during one of the upgrades I couldn't log in one day and ended up just lurking for awhile.

About 3 years ago maybe there was a great thread on bullying. People commented on what their school's policies were. One person said that their school had a hotline where any child that was being bullied or observed bullying could call annonymously. Another poster said they had a guidance class of some sort that kids could write down kids that were bullying others and teachers looked at the lists and kept an eye on those kids. There were other great ideas and It was a great thread.

I thought I had saved it but can't seem to find it. When I signed up again this morning I did a search but it doesn't seem to be there. I did read the recent thread, I think it was titled "Do you think your child is an angel".

A little backround, I am in a small town and there is not much in the school handbook about bullying, maybe 3 lines. There was a zero touching rule that went into effect a couple years ago that of course can only be enforced when teachers are monitoring it. There is a section about cyber bullying because a highschooler was expelled 2 years ago for having a hit list on Myspace. I don't know what the exact details were, however I wonder what led to the kid even having a hit list,kwim?

So anyway I was wondering if anyone can either work their magic and find a 3 or so year old thread or give your great examples of how your school deals with bullying.

Thanks so much!
