Diboll ISD prohibits bullying on school property, at school-sponsored or school-related activities, or in any vehicle operated by Diboll ISD. Bullying may include verbal or written expression, expression through electronic means, or physical conduct. Any student or parent of a student who believes that the student or another student has experienced bullying or that a student has engaged in bullying is encouraged to immediately report the incident. Retaliation against anyone involved in the reporting process is a violation of district policy and is prohibited.
If your child is being bullied or witnesses bullying at school the report should be made as soon as possible after the alleged act or knowledge of the alleged act. The report can be made to a teacher, counselor, assistant principal, principal or other district employee. Any district employee who suspects or receives notice that a student or group of students has or may have experienced bullying shall immediately notify the principal or designee. A report can be made orally, in writing, or using the electronic Anonymous Alerts reporting system.
Each campus at Diboll ISD has a Bullying Curriculum. If counseling resources are needed because your child is a bully, victim or witness, these services can be provided for six to eight weeks of bullying counseling for intervention.
Diboll Independent School District continues to use a communications tool called Anonymous Alerts®.
What is the Anonymous Alerts app?
The Anonymous Alerts anti-bullying and safety app reporting system helps combat bullying and other negative activity in schools by empowering students to speak up. Social and peer pressure are some of the hardest obstacles for students to overcome.
The system allows for 1-way or 2-way anonymous encrypted communications between submitters (students, parents or community members) and district administration and/or school staff. Users of the system have the option to remain anonymous or reveal their identity when submitting a report.
How does it work?
To use this revolutionary new app, students, parentsor other school personnel can simply visit the Diboll Independent School District website and click on the “Anonymous Alerts” button or text link to submit a report expressing their concern. Anonymous Alerts® mobile applications can be downloaded directly from the Apple, Google Play or the Chrome stores.
Diboll Independent School District supplies students a simple username and password activation code, making the app remarkably easy to use and students select which school and contact the message should go to. In addition, informational posters explaining how to use the app are displayed throughout schools and offices in the district.
