What the district published
This is the source material — exactly as released by RUSD. The plain English translation below is this site's version, written for community members who shouldn't need to know all the lingo to understand what they're legally entitled to as taxpayers, and how to access it.

The district publishes through its board portal, which often points to a whole policy folder or meeting agenda rather than this one document. Rather than send you digging, I'll add the exact source the moment I can link it directly. The plain-English summary below is drawn faithfully from that original.

In plain English
What this document actually says
This policy, last revised February 13, 2024, prohibits bullying of students and staff through physical, written, verbal, visual, cyberbullying, threats, harassment, or hate violence. It applies to behavior on campus, at school activities, and off-campus conduct that creates a hostile school environment. The district must develop anti-bullying strategies involving students, parents, and staff, and incorporate them into safety plans. Complaints are investigated using uniform complaint procedures. Students who are bullying victims may transfer to another school at parent request or district recommendation. The policy requires staff to intervene—employees who permit or engage in bullying face disciplinary action up to dismissal. Parents are encouraged to model respectful behavior and monitor potential bullying causes.
What this means for your family
Your child has the right to a safe, welcoming school environment free from bullying, harassment, and intimidation. If your child is bullied, you can file a complaint that must be investigated. Victims may transfer to another school upon request. The district expects families to model respectful behavior and help create a supportive learning environment. Staff who ignore or engage in bullying can be dismissed.
