In previous years, it was not necessary for schools to update their codes of conduct. Technology is advancing rapidly and students are creating new ways to bully others through the use of social media. Students are part of a generation where technology is essential and made accessible 24 hours a day. Schools must now frequently update their codes of conduct in order to catch up with what technological advances have to offer bullies. The Madera High School Code of Conduct is currently outdated. Here are some recommendations this group made to protect victims of bullying and prevent further problems from arising. The code of conduct should list minor and major misconduct separately with required actions. Minor behaviors include posting a hurtful comment toward a person and constantly sending rude texts via email and may be dealt with first by detention or arranging a meeting with the bully's parents. Examples of major behaviors are threatening to kill a classmate, blackmail, and posting a video which may provoke ridicule or humiliation and may be dealt with by detention or suspension. After three minor offenses and one major offense, where the victim does not want to return to school, the bully must be transferred to another school to ensure the victim's safety. In conclusion, any type of bullying or harassment should not be taken lightly and should be met with appropriate punishment in order to prevent what could be a student's first step towards a criminal act.
