Bullying Prevention

One of the legislature’s highest priorities must be to protect our children from physical, emotional, and psychological violence by addressing the harm caused by bullying and cyberbullying in our public schools. (NH’s Revised Pupil Safety and Violence Prevention Law)

According to NH’s Anti-Bullying law, “All pupils have the right to attend public schools, including chartered public schools, that are safe, secure and peaceful environments.”  Bullying and cyber-bullying remain issues for many individuals.  The resources on this page are intended to offer guidance to learn more about the problem and where to go for more information.
