ezs note:  Fellow Connecticut residents - if your child is a victim of a bully, don't wait - show up at the next school board and raise holy hell to the members.  And show up at the next meeting.  And the next.  If your child is a bully, for God's sake, don't coddle em'.  Let them know that there are rules, and you EXPECT them to be carried out.
