Child Bullying and Parent Microaggression

Children: race-based bullying at school

  • Parents meet with teacher, assistant principal, and guidance counselor to learn what the school’s strategies are for addressing bullying
    • Encourage evidence-based anti-bullying curriculum throughout school campus and year
    • Zero Tolerance anti-bullying policies do not work
  • If school officials do not intervene, contact school district office Superintendent’s office
  • If school district does not respond, contact state education agency e.g. Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction (state level) Equity and Civil Rights Office
  • If school district or state does not respond, you can contact Federal Office of Civil Rights
