Anti-Bullying Policy in Place
This past July, the Board of Education adopted a
revised Anti-Harassment/Anti-Bullying Policy that correlates with
items in the newly enacted State Law (June of 2010) entitled
"Dignity for All Students". This policy was created by a special
Board committee which included parent and community members and
which began meeting eight months prior to the policy being presented
to the Board. The new policy also addresses "cyber-bullying".
Although some items prescribed in law must still be developed by the
State Education Department prior to the required implementation
(2011), our Board has implemented the Policy in anticipation of
those new requirements. Staff received in-service training on
September 7th, and students discussed the new policy during classes
in addition to hearing about the policy during assemblies the first
two weeks of school. The form used to report harassment by students
or staff is available in the publications section of this website or
