Bullying Policy
In this collaborative video, Sherrard Superintendent, Dr. Carl Johnson, High School Assistant Principal Alex Johnson, Instructional Technology Coach Steve Miller and School Resource Officer, and Rock Island County Deputy Mike Mendoza all urge students to talk to an adult as soon as they feel they are a victim of bullying - plus, they discuss the protocols that go into effect when officials are notified about an alleged incident of bullying.
Bullying is probably the most challenging aspect in education today for parents, educators and students.
Accessing an allegation of bullying:
“We will always address the situation.”
“In the state of Illinois - legislation is strict and we are required to address these things.”
“It’s simply the right thing to do - we will never ignore it.”
“...If you see something, say something. If you feel you are a victim of bullying, you need to come to an adult and let us know."“Time is your enemy, and it will not go away. Please make sure that you report it. All the adults in our district are always able and ready to help you with anything you need, especially on this extremely important topic.”
