Anonymous Alerts - This mobile app or web-based communication tool allows students/parents in the school community to quickly, easily, and anonymously report bullying, cyber-bullying, and other sensitive topics through private messages to our administration.
STGRSD is committed to fostering a school culture that encourages and promotes acceptance and inclusivity. We strive daily to create a safe and supportive environment for all students. The MA Office of the Attorney General, Executive Office of Education, and Department of Elementary and Secondary Education jointly issued updated guidance to support schools in addressing hate and bias. Please check out two important flyers created by the Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office: Combatting Hate in Our Schools; and Addressing Hate & Bias in Schools: Q and A.
