In schools around the country, AAPI students have reported bullying and harassment by classmates because of their race or national origin, including their ethnicity, ancestry, and language.  \nPublic elementary and secondary schools as well as colleges and universities have a responsibility to investigate and address discrimination, including harassment, targeting students because of their race or national origin. When schools fail to take appropriate steps, the Educational Opportunities Section of the Civil Rights Division (CRT) at the U.S. Department of Justice and the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) at the U.S. Department of Education can help by enforcing federal laws that protect students from discrimination.  \nExamples of the kinds of incidents CRT and OCR can investigate:  \nMiddle schoolers record themselves yelling \"virus spreaders!\" at their Asian American classmates during class and post the videos on social media. School administrators are made aware of the videos but refuse to investigate or take any action to protect Asian American students from further harassment  \nat school.  \nHigh schoolers post anonymously in chat windows during a remote learning class that an Asian American classmate ruined the entire school year by bringing the \"China Virus\" to the community. The teacher can see the chat but does not address the comments or limit anonymous posting. The Asian American student turns her video off so that other students cannot see her but the chats continue.  \n—  \nWhen preparing to return to in-person learning, an elementary school principal asks parents of Asian American students about travel to China, family connections to Asia, and demands proof of a negative COVID-19 test before the child can be enrolled. The district does not request this information from students without Asian ancestry.  \n—  \nAt a middle school, students in the cafeteria make comments about wearing two masks when Asian American students are nearby. They also mock Asian American students who speak to each other in their native languages, in full view of adult lunch monitors. To avoid the conflict, Asian American students start sitting at a different lunch table.  \n—  \nA college housing administrator tells an Asian American student to consider off-campus housing rather than the college's dorms, explaining that other students may not be comfortable living in a dorm room  \nwith the Asian American student until everyone is vaccinated.  \nU.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division  \nU.S. Department of Education Office for Civil Rights  \nWhat if a Student Experiences Discrimination in School?  \nIf you believe a student has been treated unfairly—for example, treated differently, harassed, bullied, or retaliated against—because of their race or national origin, there are a number of actions you can take:  \nNotify a school leader (for example, a principal or student affairs staff) immediately. If you don't get the help you need, file a formal complaint with the school, school district, college, or university. Keep records of responses you receive.  \nWrite down the details about what happened, where and when the incident happened, who was involved, and the names of any witnesses. Do this for every instance of discrimination and keep copies of any related documents or other information.  \nAsk the school or college/university to translate its documents (like a compla","cbCaivQOuzpYv8Kh","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivQOuzpYv8Kh","pdf",1447282,"English","# Confronting COVID-19-Related Harassment in Schools\n## What Harassment and Discrimination Can Look Like\n## What If a Student Experiences Discrimination in School?\n## Actions Families Can Take","[{\"question\":\"What kinds of harassment incidents can civil rights offices investigate in schools?\",\"answer\":\"The document gives examples such as students posting degrading or threatening comments online or in class, administrators refusing to act after learning about videos, and discrimination in in-person settings like travel demands or discriminatory enrollment practices.\"},{\"question\":\"What responsibilities do schools and colleges have regarding discrimination and harassment?\",\"answer\":\"Schools and universities must investigate and address discrimination, including harassment targeting students because of race or national origin.\"},{\"question\":\"What steps can families take if a student is treated unfairly?\",\"answer\":\"Families can notify a school leader, file formal complaints if help is not provided, and keep detailed records.
