Why where could they be?
The MD Model Bullying policy clearly provides clear, specific protections for children who are bullied; but MCPS has just released its draft regulations, and those victim protections are mysteriously missing...continues here.
Note: What is being discussed on the No Bully Pulpit blog is a MCPS regulation on bullying. Regulations are written by the Superintendent and are not reviewed or voted on by the Board of Education.
MCPS regulations do not afford parents the ability to appeal a decision based on a regulation to the State Board of Education, as is available with a Board of Education Policy. There may be other remedies available for a violation of a regulation, but a regulation is not as strong as a Board policy.
