Published February 14, 2014
Williamson County Schools has two new tools in its fight against bullying. Today, the district unveiled a new anti-bullying hotline. Parents and students are encouraged to call the hotline if they have witnessed or know of instances of bullying.
The toll free number is 1-855-284-0669. A district official will be available to answer calls between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m, Monday through Friday. Incidents can also be reported via email at bullying@wcs.edu.
"We are committed to making Williamson County Schools a safe place for all students," said Superintendent Dr. Mike Looney. "Bullying is unacceptable behavior that affects a student’s ability to focus on learning and to succeed in the classroom and beyond. We hope parents and students will use these resources and help us put an end to bullying."
As always, students or parents who have been bullied or witnessed bullying should immediately report such incidents to the school principal.
