The school system adopts a comprehensive policy that addresses all forms of youth violence, including bullying. Do you think this could help reduce youth violence in this neighborhood?
INCORRECT. (YES is correct)
CORRECT!
Policies—including laws, mandates, regulations, standards, resolutions, and guidelines—provide a foundation for school district practices and procedures. Sound policies reassure families, students, and school staff; provide legal protection for schools; and support and direct individuals throughout the school system. Well-drafted and administered policies can also help contain or prevent controversy.
