Cyber Bullying
A willful harassment and intimidation of a person through the use of digital technologies, including but not limited to, e-mail, blogs, texting, social websites, chat rooms and instant messaging. Cyberbullying can occur off school property or outside of a school-sponsored or school-related activity if the cyberbullying interferes with a student’s educational opportunity or substantially disrupts the orderly operation of a classroom, school, or school-sponsored or school-related activity. Cyberbullying includes cyberstalking, which is the practice of digital forms of communication to harass a person in an aggressive, often threatening manner.
While actively participating in arguments via the use of social media or technology is not desirable behavior, it is not cyberbullying.
