Location: Forestdale School and Zoom
Topic: Malden SEPAC January Meeting: Anti-Bullying Training for Parents and Caregivers
Overview: Johanne Pino from Massachusetts Advocates for Children discussed the importance of addressing bullying in schools, particularly in relation to students with disabilities. She emphasized the role of the anti-bullying law in addressing the needs of all students and the necessity of comprehensive training for school staff to prevent and address bullying. She also explained the process for filing a bullying complaint with the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education and discussed the impacts of bullying on students. The team then discussed a case study involving a third-grade girl with autism who was experiencing bullying and worked on strategies to help her feel less vulnerable and develop social skills.
