Bullying Prevention at Harper Park

At HPMS we take bullying prevention seriously.  We know that bullying can and will occur, but we take many steps to make sure we prevent as much as possible.  Here are some of the things that go on at Harper Park to help stop bullying.

How to Report Bullying/Mistreatment

Students or parents can report an act of mistreatment via our online portal, which is on the right-hand side of the main Harper Park School Website.  It can also be found here: Report Mistreatment Here

Students and/or parents can reach out to any member of the UMHT or Administrative Team to talk about anything that they have experienced or witnessed.
