November 3:
Last
spring Governor Deval Patrick signed legislation intended to prevent
bullying in schools across our state. The legislation requires each district
to submit a Bullying Prevention and Intervention Plan to the Department of
Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) by the end of December. The
district has convened a committee composed of staff members, parents,
students, and community members to create this plan. To create a plan that
accurately reflects Hopkinton’s context and needs, we need to know the
perspectives of a cross section of staff members, parents, students, and
community members. RSVP to:
