Abstract	This article discusses ways on how to address the problem of sexual harassment in schools. Sexual harassment--simply defined as any unwanted and unwelcome sexual behavior--is a sensitive topic. Merely providing students, parents, and staff members with information about the school's sexual harassment policy is insufficient; schools must take decisive action. They must provide positive, proactive behavioral supports, ongoing training, and discussions as part of the daily school routine, rather than relying solely on disciplinary consequences for inappropriate behavior and language. All faculty and staff members must model appropriate behaviors. Further, administrators, teachers, students, and parents must nurture an inclusive, supportive, and respectful environment in their efforts to decrease and eliminate sexual harassment.
