The Hillsdale Public Schools has an Anti-Bullying Coordinator for the district and an Anti-Bullying Specialist in each building.  The following is a list of who fills each role in our district and a brief description of the responsibility attached to it.

District Anti-Bullying Coordinator

The District Anti-Bullying Coordinator is Mrs. Tracey Mastice.

The District Anti-Bullying Coordinator's role is to coordinate and strengthen the school district's Harassment Intimidation and Bullying (HIB) policies to prevent, identify and address the harassment, intimidation and bullying of students.  This is done in collaboration with the school Anti-Bullying Specialists, Principals, Superintendent and Board of education.
