Our handbook states, Reporting Bullying/Harassment Incidents

Mount Sacred Heart Catholic School is a “No Bullying” school, which means that we do not tolerate bullying. However, if we are not aware that a bullying situation is occurring, we cannot intervene. Mount Sacred Heart provides several ways to report incidents of bullying and harassment. Reports can be made anonymously using the forms provided in each classroom, or on the school website (currently located under the “Support” tab). Verbal or written reports can be made directly to the administration, a teacher, or to the counselor at any time.

Counseling is available for students witnessing a bullying incident.
