Laramie County School District #1 Investigation Finds Further Education On Tolerance Needed

Laramie County School District #1 issued a statement Friday regarding its investigation into complaints of bullying and harassment at McCormick Junior High.

In the statement, the district said the investigation found that students of color, students with disabilities, and LGBTQ students were the target of bullying and harassment. It also concluded that school staff had not always followed district policies regarding how to respond to actions and allegations of that nature.

Superintendent Boyd Brown said the district is planning to do training for staff and students to improve tolerance.

“We want kids to treat each other with dignity and respect, and we want them to be tolerant of each other,” said Brown. "So we are going to do some activities with students and we are also going to do some activities with staff.”
