Iowans
for Safe Schools
As Iowans,
we want schools that are safe, inclusive places for all students. Our
instinct is to protect children from harm. No child should be the
victim of bullying, harassment, or discrimination. All students— black,
brown, white, straight, gay, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, fat, skinny,
short, tall, girl, boy—deserve to learn and grow free from physical and
emotional abuse. Thus, as Iowans,
we fully support policies and legislation in Iowa including the language
below to protect all children in Iowa from bullying, harassment, and
discrimination.
Bullying, harassment and discrimination will not be tolerated based on
any real or perceived characteristic, including, but not limited to,
age, color, creed, national origin, race, religion, marital status, sex,
sexual orientation, gender identity, physical attributes, physical or
mental disability, ancestry, socioeconomic status or familial status.
