If a student is found responsible for violating any provision of the standards of conduct for students as a result of causing injury to another or to another's property, or as a result of placing another in reasonable fear of injury to self or property, and if the responsible student is found to have intentionally selected the victim based upon the responsible student's perception of the victim's race, color, religion, ancestry, national or ethnic origin, age, gender, marital status, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or mental, physical, or sensory disability, such finding is considered an aggravating factor in determining a sanction for such conduct.
