FCS on Bullying

One way we walk our talk.

“Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.” Eph 4:29

As people who are called to live righteous lives that encourage and build others up in a healthy environment, appropriate discipline shall take place when individuals subject others to acts that run contrary to or work against Biblical values. We do so with the aim to protect those who deserve protection, to warn the offender and others of the dangers and sinfulness of such actions, and to bring reconciliation when possible. Christ calls on the school and parents to partner as peacemakers in the process of training and teaching young students.

“By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.” 1 John 3:16-18

Part of the discipline and reconciliation process involves notifying the school of incidents that may be considered bullying. We strive to make FCS a safe place for your child.
