  • Guidance for Parents on the Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights Act

  • HIB 338 Form - Parent Harassment, intimidation, or Bullying (English | Spanish)

  • 2023-2024 HIB Self Assessment
    In 2011, the Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights Act was signed into law to strengthen the procedures for preventing, reporting, and investigating and responding to incidents of Harassment, Intimidation and Bullying (HIB) of students.  The LTES School District in support of this initiative implemented training programs to raise awareness and prevent bullying by recognizing the warning signs and taking each report seriously.  By acting quickly, problems were handled in a private manner.  Victims were supported and taught coping skills.  Bullies were disciplined but also provided appropriate support and guidance with vigilant staff monitoring.  We are confident the achievement of 68 out of the 75 possible points indicates prevention and intervention program success.  We will remain committed to providing safe, positive and productive educational environments where all students can achieve their hest academic potential.
