A Tough, Important Topic: Bullying

Talk to your child about what bullying is and make sure he or she understands that it is unacceptable behavior. It is never too early to bring it up; for younger children you can talk about being mean rather than using the term bullying. Keep the lines of communication open with your child – know your child’s friends, ask about the school day, and listen to any questions or concerns that arise. Tell your child to talk to you or a trusted adult at school if he or she is ever bullied or witnesses an incident of bullying. Let your child know it’s okay to stand up to a bully by saying “STOP” or by simply walking away. If you have questions or concerns about bullying at Meadow Hill, please contact: Amy Weigel, School Psychologist & DASA Coordinator at (845) 568-6716 or via email Amy.Weigel@necsd.net
