Bullying Policy
At Highland Springs Middle School, we are committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for all our students. To ensure that every child feels secure and respected, we have implemented a comprehensive bullying policy. This policy outlines our approach to preventing and addressing bullying, including clear definitions, reporting procedures, and consequences for those who engage in such behavior.
We believe that by working together, we can foster a positive school culture where every student can thrive. Please take a moment to review the key points of our bullying policy below and discuss them with your child. Your support is crucial in helping us maintain a safe and welcoming school community.
Thank you for your cooperation and commitment to our students’ well-being.
Sincerely,
Paige Day
