bodily harm, or;
3. any intentional written, verbal or physical act, which a reasonable person would perceive as being
intended to threaten, harass, or intimidate that:
• Causes substantial physical harm or bodily harm capable of being perceived by a person other than the victim; or
• Has the effect of substantially interfering with the victim student’s education.
• Is so severe, persistent, or pervasive that it creates an intimidating or threatening educational
environment; or
• Has the effect of substantially disrupting the orderly operation of the school.
