anti-bullying policy
Bullying, intimidating behavior, sexual and other harassment is expressly prohibited at the Hunterdon Preparatory School. Students begin their placement at the Hunterdon Preparatory School only after agreeing to abide by the school's Good Faith Agreement. The Good Faith Agreement requires students to make a personal commitment to be actively involved in helping to maintain a healthy school community. This is accomplished by showing respect and tolerance for others, and a willingness to resolve conflicts with peers and staff members.
Bullying or intimidating behavior, sexual or other harassment or offensive conduct directed toward another person or persons, whether based upon a person's gender, sexual orientation or other basis, such as race, religion, creed, color, national origin, ancestry, physical or mental disability, medical condition, marital status, veteran status or age, clearly violate the Good Faith Agreement and are therefore strictly prohibited.
Sexual harassment includes any sexual advances or suggestions, requests for sexual favors, and verbal, nonverbal or physical contact of a sexual nature whenever such contact has the purpose or effect of intimidation, or tends to create an intimidating, hostile or offensive educational environment. Prohibited conduct includes, but is not limited to, sexual or rude comments or jokes, drawings or pictures, gestures or looks. Furthermore, any inappropriate behavior based upon a person's gender or sexual orientation, or involving or relating to sexual functions or conduct, is prohibited.
Any student who feels that he/she is the object of any form of harassment should report his/her concern to any member of the teaching, counseling or administrative staff, including the Principal. The Hunterdon Preparatory School’'s Anti-Bullying Specialists, Mrs. Amanda Medina and Mr. Daniel Schwahl, will take appropriate measures both to investigate the matter and to prevent further offensive conduct. No student complaining of harassment will be the subject of any retaliatory or reprisal conduct, whether by the Hunterdon Preparatory School, its staff or fellow students, and any such retaliatory or reprisal conduct will result in severe consequences.
Failure or refusal to comply with the Hunterdon Preparatory School Good Faith Agreement and Anti-Bullying Policy may result in proceedings that will lead to termination of placement.
