Abstract	"Terrorist," "son of bin Laden," "camel jockey," "raghead," "towel-head"--variations of the same epithets resurface in each generation with the same painful impact. While Muslim students in public schools were objects of derision and harassment long before 9/11, the situation in the past decade has become markedly worse. Bullying and harassment may go unreported by students out of fear of making a bad situation worse. Educators may themselves harbor their own misconceptions, making intervention and prevention less likely and even more challenging. The author discusses how preventive measures and interventions can stem stereotypes and bullying that accompany Islamophobia in schools. (ERIC).
