“Bullying or Harassment behavior is any pattern of gestures or written, electronic or verbal communications or any physical act or any threatening communications that: 1) places a student or school employee in actual and reasonable fear of harm to his or her person or damage to his or her property; or 2) creates or is certain to create a hostile environment by substantially interfering with or impairing a student's educational performance opportunities or benefits.  Discrimination means any act or failure to act that unreasonably and unfavorably differentiates treatment of others based solely on their membership in a socially distinct group or category, such as race, ethnicity, sex, pregnancy, religion, age or disability.  Discrimination may be intentional or unintentional.”
