| WV | Adopted 12/2002 | P-12 | The purpose is to provide districts with a policy of student conduct that will ensure an orderly and safe environment that is conducive to learning. These regulations also require that public schools respond immediately and consistently to incidents of harassment, intimidation, bullying, substance abuse and/or violence or other Student Code of Conduct violations in a manner that effectively deters future incidents and affirms respect for individuals. These regulations require county boards to design and implement prevention and response programs, to outline investigatory and reporting procedures, and to delineate penalties for violations of this policy. The state board believes further that public schools should undertake proactive, preventive approaches to ensure a nurturing, orderly and safe school environment that fosters learning and personal-social development. Public schools must create, encourage, and maintain a safe, drug-free, and fear-free school environment in the classroom, on the playground, and at school-sponsored activities. Assuring such an educational environment requires a comprehensive program supported by everyone in the school organization, as well as parents/guardians, and the community. Any form of harassment, intimidation, bullying, substance abuse, violence, or other policy violation is unacceptable in West Virginia schools. WEST VIRGINIA REG 4204 (SN)
