To further support our on-going efforts to address bullying behavior our District will join with hundreds of schools, colleges, and businesses on the first day of school (or first couple of days pending logistical concerns in the schools) and take a pledge against bullying. All employees, including the superintendent, Dr. Glenn Maleyko will take the pledge and lead by example. All School or Department heads will have this done in a setting of their choice the first couple of days of school. In addition, the Board of Education will take the pledge on September 12 regular P-12 meeting.This pledge is part of a program being promoted by the State Superintendent and the Michigan Federation of Teachers. Here is a link to a website that explains the model. https://tylerclementi.org/day1/
