But, I really think the school is missing an opportunity to educate kids (especially boys) on the proper way to behave around girls. Changing dress codes and sweeping under the rug will not work.

As I mentioned my kid can handle herself. She is talking with her friends about getting together themselves to advocate to the school. I don't want any boys suspended or arrested for being inappropriate. I want the school teachers and administration to pull them aside and say that this is not appropriate behavior - educate the kids. They are inundated with violence and sex at an early age in today's media. They need to learn. That is a responsibility of the school.

I sent a strongly worded email citing the relevant laws and that the focus was misplaced, the school should escort the offender and not the victim. I gave the school 24 hours to stop the behavior and advised that afterwards my child would be instructed to call 911 from school and I would be contacting a lawyer.

I don't agree that the school is responsible to "educate kids (especially boys) on the proper way to behave around girls."
That responsibility rest squarely on parents.

The school is responsible for keeping ALL kids safe. All students have the right to attend school without the fear of being bullied and all should be taught to keep their hands to themselves.

Kids are already taught this throughout every one of the schools my kids have attended in this district.
This particular group of boys hasn't gotten the message.
That's the problem. Not that there isn't enough "education" around the subject.

The young women who are being harassed should learn a few self defense moves and get together and beat the s##t out of their tormentors.
Much as this has a great deal of appeal, I think it could also complicate matters greatly. They would then also be in violation of the discipline policy I'm sure.lizziecat said:

If the boys have not received the message yet, then there hasn't been enough of it yet. It needs to be repeated until it is heeded.
