I worked at the school this lass went to a few years ago, its a good school but to be frank schools/teachers are all but powerless to stop bullying either on the net or in real life, teenage kids, in pack form, being arseholes off the first order and proof positive that we are descended from monkeys.
Closing down the facebook account would have been a good idea, not because it would have stopped the bullying but would have made the girl less available to it.
When my daughter had some problems a few years ago one of my foster kids, a downtown eastside gang member, without my knowledge I have to add, tracked down the boy that was the cause of the trouble on line and let him know how truely ####ty his life would be if my lad and several of his friends stole a car and headed out to the burbs to beat him down, funnily enough she never ever had a problem with any one after that, couldn't really approve of the lads actions but suffice to say he got to chose dinner for a while.
