You could also explain to the parents that serious consequences could be at stake if their child continues this behavior. Talking with the student to get to the root of the problem is always an option, although I'm sure you have done this already.

If there is a behavior specialist, you should speak to them about implementing a behavior management plan for the student.

Additionally, I would work with a behavior specialist to create a management plan for the student!

This incorporates a reflective and introspective component that can lead into practicing empathy which in time might register with them how it is unacceptable and a form of bullying.

If you have tried that I would consider talking to one of the school's administrators and telling them you've done everything you can do with your means, and time without taking away from the other students' learning.
