One of the main concerns I hear from teachers, parents, students, and fellow administrators, is in regards to cyberbullying. It seems that with new advances in technology, comes new advances in ways to harm our students. Although the majority of school districts publish a computer/internet acceptable use policy, most school administrators are at a loss when confronted with cyberbullying. STOP cyberbullying is an excellent resource and can be found by selecting the following link: http://www.stopcyberbullying.org/.
This website is useful to administrators in that it allows the user to select a range of ages as a focus group. Obviously, the cyberbullying an administrator confronts at the primary level will be quite different from what a school leader might find at the secondary level. It also clearly defines cyberbullying, how to prevent the problem, how to take action, and defines supporting law. In addition, this website is interactive and user friendly, so it could help to build a bridge among administrators, teachers, students, and parents in dealing with this sensitive topic.
I strongly recommend checking out this website.
