🚔 Late Night, Blue Lights

It was 1:45 in the morning on a dark stretch of road. A driver, nervous and alone, saw flashing red and blue lights fill their rearview mirror. Heart racing, palms sweating — they pulled over, knowing this could turn bad fast.

But this time was different. They had 24/7 access to a lawyer through LegalShield. Before the officer even reached the window, they tapped their phone and hit the app. Within moments, an attorney was on the line, ready to advise and protect their rights.

What could have been a life-altering night became a story of protection, empowerment, and peace of mind — because when the system came calling, LegalShield answered. (Sign up today)

let’s bring in Seth’s Law (AB 9) and why it matters. It strengthens the Safe Place to Learn Act by giving parents and kids clear protections and requiring schools to act quickly when bullying occurs.

“Every eight minutes, a child is bullied.

In just a six-hour school day, that’s 45 bullying incidents.

Now picture a school of 500 children.

That means up to 45 kids every single day could experience bullying.

That’s nearly one in ten students.

Stretch it further:

• 225 incidents per week
• Over 8,100 incidents in one school year

If it were spread evenly, that’s 16 incidents per student, per year.

This is not rare. It is constant. And it is urgent that we take action.

📖 California Education Code protects our children:

• Safe Place to Learn Act (Ed Code §§234–234.5)
  Requires schools to adopt strong anti-bullying policies and ensure a safe environment for all students.
• Seth’s Law (AB 9)
  Named after a 13-year-old boy who tragically took his life after relentless bullying.
  Seth’s Law requires schools to intervene immediately when staff witness bullying and to provide clear reporting, investigation, and follow-up.
  Why? Because silence and delay cost lives. Seth’s story is the reminder that action must be immediate.
• Student Discipline (Ed Code §48900)
  Defines bullying, harassment, hate violence, and threats as grounds for suspension or referral to counseling and restorative practices.
• Comprehensive School Safety Plans (Ed Code §§32280–32289.5)
  Every school must annually review a plan to prevent and respond to bullying, harassment, and discrimination.
• Bullying Prevention Training (Ed Code §32283.5)
  Requires schools to train staff to recognize and respond to bullying effectively.

Parents, these laws are not suggestions — they are requirements.

But laws only work if we hold schools accountable and stand together as a community.

California Front Office Bullying Disclosure & Notification ni

   Protocol

Step 1: Immediate, Private Response

• If a child enters the front office and says “I have been bullied”:

• Do not ask for details at the front desk.

• Staff must escort the student immediately to the school’s designated Bullying Point of Contact (BPOC) (principal, counselor, or bullying prevention coordinator).

• Ensure privacy—never require the child to recount the incident in a public or open area.

⸻

Step 2: Confidential Reporting

• The BPOC meets with the student in a private and safe setting.

• The student may request a trusted adult to be present.

• The BPOC documents the incident immediately using the district’s Incident Reporting Form (date, location, names, circumstances, prior incidents).

• Anonymous reporting options (drop box, hotline, online form) must also be available and publicized.

⸻

Step 3: Safety Assurance

• If necessary, separate the alleged aggressor and the student who reported bullying.

• Review or create a student safety plan (safe spaces, escort, check-ins).

• Monitor the child’s well-being during the day and in the days following.

⸻

Step 4: Investigation

• The school initiates an immediate investigation in accordance with district policy and state law.

• The student should not have to repeat their story to multiple staff—only the designated investigator.

⸻

Step 5: Parent/Guardian Notification (California Law)

Under California Education Code §§234–234.5 (Seth’s Law):

• Immediate Notification: Parents or guardians of both the student who was bullied and the student accused of bullying must be notified promptly once the incident is reported and/or investigated.

• Written Notice: Districts are strongly encouraged to provide written confirmation for record-keeping and clarity.

• Documentation: Notices must outline:

• What occurred (within privacy boundaries)

• Actions taken or pending investigation

• Available support services and resources for affected students

• Annual Notification: Every district must provide parents with annual written notice of anti-bullying policies and reporting procedures.

⸻

Step 6: What Not to Do

• Do not allow disclosure at the front desk where others may overhear.

• Do not delay documentation or follow-up.

• Do not share disciplinary actions of other students (FERPA).

• Do not require the student to tell their story to multiple adults.

Step 7: Policy Communication

• Each school site must identify and publicize its designated BPOC (name, role, photo in visible areas).

• All staff (including front office) must be trained annually on how to respond.

• Students and families must be informed each year about how to report bullying, including anonymous options.

Q 

✅ Bottom Line:

In California, schools must have a confidential, immediate, and consistent process for handling bullying reports. Privacy and safety for the child come first, followed by documented investigation and mandatory parent/guardian notification of all involved parties, in compliance with state law.

What is “Seth’s Law”?

• In 2011, California passed Assembly Bill 9 (AB 9), known as Seth’s Law, in his memory.
• It amended California Education Code §§ 234–234.5, strengthening protections for students.

Key Points of Seth’s Law:

• Requires all schools in California to:
  
• Adopt strong policies prohibiting bullying, harassment, discrimination, and intimidation.
• Post those policies in visible places on campus.
• Provide clear complaint and investigation procedures.
• Ensure confidentiality for students who report bullying.
• Prohibit retaliation against anyone who reports or assists with a bullying complaint.
• 
  

Why It Matters to Your Work

• Seth’s story is exactly why privacy and immediate action matter when a child reports bullying.
• When you train staff, you can remind them:
  “Seth’s Law was created after a 13-year-old boy lost his life because his reports of bullying were ignored. California law now requires schools to protect students’ privacy, take reports seriously, and stop bullying immediately.”

180 × 5 = 900.

So, if you’re extending your “180 bullying incidents per day” stat across a 5-day school week, that would total 900 incidents per week.

👉 Do you want me to also scale that out for a full school year (e.g., ~180 school days)?

• Per Day: 180 incidents
• Per Week (5 days): 180 × 5 = 900 incidents
• Per School Year (~180 days): 180 × 180 = 32,400 incidents

🎙️ That means in an average school year, one school could see over 32,000 bullying incidents — a powerful statistic to use for your parent-focused podcast or presentations.

👉 Do you want me to build this into a visual chart/graphic (day → week → year) so you can show the escalation clearly?

Ray — that’s a strong point. Endearing terms like mijo or mija can unintentionally create favoritism dynamics on the yard:

• The child receiving it may feel special or above others, which can embolden them.
• Other children may feel left out, ignored, or less valued, which can breed resentment or even bullying.
• From a professional standpoint, it creates a double standard and undermines the expectation that all students be treated fairly and equally.

Here’s a refined section you can insert into the memo/policy I drafted earlier:

⚖️ Equal Treatment & Avoidance of Favoritism

Staff should avoid the use of endearing language (e.g., “sweetheart,” “buddy,” etc.) when addressing students. While often well-intentioned, such terms can:

• Make other children feel excluded or less valued.
• Create a perception of favoritism or bias.
• Cause the child receiving the endearment to feel emboldened or superior to peers.

To maintain fairness and professionalism, supervisors should consistently use neutral, respectful terms such as the child’s name, “student,” “young man,” or “young lady.” This ensures every child feels equally respected and supported.
