Maryland HB14 requires county boards of education to report incidents of bullying, harassment, or intimidation against students. It mandates the distribution of report forms to public schools and allows county boards to establish anonymous two-way electronic tip programs for reporting. The bill also requires county boards to submit summaries of these reports to the State Board annually and to post information about reported incidents on their websites. The information collected must be kept confidential and not included in a student's permanent educational record.
