The Halton Catholic District School Board (HCDSB) recognizes the importance of a safe, inclusive, caring and accepting school climate.
In April, 2008, the HCDSB created the Bullying Prevention and Intervention Policy II-40, which expresses the vital need for students to experience healthy, safe and inclusive learning environments where all students feel accepted.
