Any school employee who observes an incident of discrimination, harassment, intimidation, or bullying or to whom such an incident is reported shall report the incident to the coordinator or principal, whether or not the victim files a complaint. When a school employee witnesses an act of discrimination, harassment, intimidation, or bullying, he or she should take immediate steps to intervene when it is safe to do so.
