"The most significant change in Bill 212 was not its repeal of zero tolerance, but the inclusion of one word: bullying. It defined bullying as “a dynamic of unhealthy interaction that can take many forms. It can be physical (e.g., hitting, pushing, tripping); verbal (e.g., name-calling, mocking, or making sexist, racist, or homophobic comments” (PPM, 144, p. 3). The inclusion of the word bullying in the Safe Schools Act meant that verbal and emotional abuse was given parity with physical violence."Blazing Cat Fur has MORE
