Creating an Environment Where Everyone Can Learn: Addressing Bullying and Harassment in Our Schools
Kids can’t learn if they don’t feel safe and secure. Period. It’s that simple.
In this unprecedented outreach to the school transportation industry, Assistant Deputy Secretary of Education Kevin Jennings, who heads the federal Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools, will explain the importance of eliminating bullying and harassment as education issues that detract from a student’s ability to focus on learning and will discuss how the Education Department plans to create truly safe schools — where every student feels like they belong, where every student feels secure, and where every student feels valued – as part of the re-authorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA).
