The religious educators of our schools are committed to teaching the fullness of revelation as it is taught by the Roman Catholic Church and as the life and doctrine are set forth in the Religious Education Guidelines of the Archdiocese of New York. While our teachers value ecumenical education, and respect the traditions of other ecclesiastical communities, they always teach within the context of fidelity to the doctrine and traditions of our teaching church. Harassment/Bullying Policies (E.17, E.18) Harassment/bullying regulations need to be grounded in the belief that all persons have a right to be treated with dignity. In a Catholic Christian environment, all demeaning behavior is unacceptable. The school provides a safe environment for all. Schools within the Archdiocese participate in the ADAPP anti-bullying curriculum annually. Verbal, internet, telephone, or written threats made against the physical or emotional well-being of any individual are taken seriously. Students making such threats, even in jest, face appropriate disciplinary action including detention, suspension, or expulsion. The principal investigates all complaints of harassment/bullying. Students involved in harassing/bullying behavior are subject to detention, suspension, or expulsion and, where appropriate, will be referred for counseling services and/or to the local authorities. If you believe that your child is being harassed/bullied, please notify the principal immediately.
