Establishes antibullying requirements for school districts

HB 655 requires all Missouri public school districts and charter schools to adopt comprehensive antibullying policies. These policies must define bullying broadly (including cyberbullying and harassment that disrupts learning), ban zero-tolerance disciplinary approaches, and mandate staff to report incidents within one school day. Schools must investigate reports within ten school days, notify parents of bullying incidents, prohibit retaliation against reporters, and provide annual staff training and student education on bullying prevention. The bill directly affects every Missouri K-12 school by mandating specific procedural changes to address bullying and create safer learning environments.
