Bullying Report Letter FLKids & School · A report the school has to act on
Florida

How do I make the school act?

Describe what's been happening — what, where, who, how often, what you've already told the school. In a few seconds you get the written report with the facts laid out the way the policy needs them, who to send it to, what the school must do next and by when, and what to do if they don't. No account. Nothing stored.

Free — takes 40 seconds

What's been happening.

Your child's grade and school, what has happened (as specific as you can — dates, places, words used, whether it's physical, online, or both), who is involved, whether your child has told a teacher, and what you've already said to the school and when.

Free. Takes a few seconds.

Why this exists

'We'll look into it' is not an investigation. A dated written report is.

Florida law makes the school investigate and tell you the outcome — but the process starts with a report that names dates, places, witnesses and what you want done. Most parents call or email once and wait. This writes the report the policy is built to answer, and the next letter if it isn't.

How it works

Forty seconds. Then a report the school has to answer.

01

Describe what's happening

Incidents, dates, who, what you've told the school. Nothing is saved.

02

Get the report and the rule

The written report, who gets it, what the school must do — in English or Spanish.

03

Escalate if they don't act

The follow-up, the district letter, the state and federal complaints and the safety-plan request, in the full version.

Plans

The report is free. The full packet is $9.

The free version writes the report and tells you the rule. The packet adds the incident log, the follow-up and escalation letters, the complaint outlines, the safety-plan and records requests and the meeting agenda.

Common questions

Is this really free? Is what I paste stored?

The first letter is free, with no account needed. A full packet with the escalation letters and the Hope Scholarship notice is $9 per situation; advocates, PTAs, and counselors handling multiple cases can get a $49/month plan. Nothing you paste is stored — the tool doesn't keep a copy after you leave.

What do I actually get, and is this from a lawyer?

You get a written report organized the way the district's bullying policy needs it — the incidents, dates, witnesses, and your specific requests — plus who to send it to and what to do if nothing happens. This tool is not a lawyer, it is not legal advice, and it can be wrong; your district's own policy controls the actual procedure.

Does the school really have to investigate and tell me what happened?

Yes — under the Jeffrey Johnston Stand Up for All Students Act (Fla. Stat. 1006.147), every Florida district must have a bullying policy, accept reports, investigate them, and notify parents. State law doesn't set one exact number of days for the investigation; that's set by your district's own policy, so ask the school for it in writing.

What if I send the letter and the school still does nothing?

Escalate in order: from the principal to the district's student-services office or area superintendent, then to the school board, then to the Florida Department of Education's Office of Safe Schools. If the bullying is based on race, sex, disability, religion, or national origin, you can also file with the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights, which has a 180-day deadline according to its complaint process.

My child mentioned wanting to hurt themselves — what do I do right now?

Call or text 988 (the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) today, and tell your child's pediatrician and the school counselor right away — do this before anything else, including sending any letter. This tool cannot handle a safety emergency; if there's a credible threat of violence, call the school and police immediately.
