Louisiana's new anti-bullying law is drawing criticism for the workload it could place on schools once it takes effect in 2013.
Michael Faulk, president of the Louisiana Association of School Superintendents, told the state's Board of Elementary and Secondary Education on Tuesday that implementing the new procedures would create an "administrative nightmare" for public schools.
Louisiana approved Act 861 earlier this year, one of the most-extensive bullying laws in the nation. (A proposed law in the state of New York criminalizing bullying would put both states on par.) Faulk says that the procedural mandates will cause a big strain.
