ROCORI Looks to Prevent Bullying During Upcoming School Year [AUDIO]

COLD SPRING - With classes starting back up in a few weeks, local school districts are looking to prevent bullying in their schools.

ROCORI superintendent Scott Staska says they have always been concerned with preventing bullying.

The Minnesota legislature this year has required all schools to adopt a bully prevention policy before the school year starts.

Staska says he doesn't expect much to change in the district this year and that changes will mostly come in record-keeping.

ROCORI also added cyber-bullying and social media guidelines to its bullying prevention policy six years ago.
