School Academic Program & Policies

 

Bullying:

 

The WHDC Christian Academy is committed to maintaining a healthy, learning, and working environment free of any form of bullying or intimidation by students toward personnel or students on school grounds, during school time, at a school-sponsored activity or in a school related context. Bullying is the ongoing or repetitive intentional action by an individual, or group of individuals, to inflict physical, emotional or mental suffering on another individual or group of individuals.

Students have a right to an environment that is free of bullying, harassment, and intimidation so that the school is a safe learning environment.
