A bill called House Bill 1942 passed that year and took effect for the 2011–2012 school year, and it required every district in the state to adopt a policy: to define bullying, to prohibit it, to establish a procedure for reporting it, to establish a procedure for investigating a report, and to notify parents.

Caddo Springs Independent School District adopted its policy on the twelfth of June 2012.

I have the board minutes.

It is agenda item 9(c).

It passed seven to nothing.

The discussion, per the minutes, lasted from 7:41 to 7:44.

Three minutes.

So from the autumn of 2012 there was a policy, and there was a form, and there was a procedure, and my son had two years of high school left.
