Abstract

Cyberbullying has emerged as serious matter both in and outside of schools across the nation. There is a need for educators to learn about the impact cyberbullying has on students. The purpose of this paper is to address the need for district-level administrators and school site personnel to build a strong shared understanding of cyberbullying in order to respond to it with efficiency. A survey will be designed and proposed to be administered school site staff in order to obtain their level of knowledge about cyberbullying. Information gathered from the survey will help to provide school district administrators to make decisions regarding ways in which to work collaboratively with school site personnel to implement anti-cyberbullying programs to benefit students.
