Education: curriculum; instruction in cyber bullying and harassment prevention; provide for. Amends 1976 PA 451 (MCL 380.1 - 380.1852) by adding sec. 1166c.
This bill directs the Michigan Department of Education to create age-appropriate model programs for teaching students how to prevent cyberbullying and harassment at every grade level. It defines cyberbullying as the use of electronic devices like cell phones and computers to send intimidating or threatening messages. While the bill strongly encourages school districts to include these models in their curricula, it does not mandate their adoption. The legislation aims to provide schools with standardized resources to address online harassment among students.
