Fair Notice and Process
In Medicine Hat Catholic schools, the safety of our children is a top priority.
Along with our community partners, we are committed to keeping our schools safe for students and staff. The community partners as members of the Southeast Alberta Regional Assessment of Risk to Others (ARTO) committee have developed a plan for responding to all situations in which students may be posing a threat to themselves or others, which includes that all staff must report all threat related behaviours.
The information provided on this page is intended to serve our community with fair notice that we, as a school division, will not accept “no response” to a threat in our schools.
We are proud to be able to provide this level of support to our school communities and we are fortunate to have the commitment of our community partners. If there are any questions, please feel free to contact your school administrator or further information can be found in the links below.
