School Board addresses three unfounded bullying cases at Forties and North schools

The North Hunterdon-Voorhees Regional High School District Board of Education convened on June 24, 2025, to address several key agenda items, including a report on harassment, intimidation, and bullying (HIB) cases, as well as upcoming meetings and goals.

The meeting began with a report on HIB incidents since the last gathering. It was noted that three cases were reported: one at Voorhees and two at North Hunterdon. Importantly, all three cases were deemed unfounded, meaning there were no substantiated claims of harassment or bullying this month. The board called for a motion to accept this report, which was seconded and unanimously approved by the members present.

Following the HIB report, board members were reminded that monthly reports were available for their review, and a brief discussion ensued regarding the documentation related to the cases. A member sought clarification on the unfounded status of the cases, confirming that the report accurately reflected the situation.

In addition to the HIB report, the board discussed the scheduling of their annual goal-setting and regular meeting, which has been moved to Monday, July 21, at 6 PM, to be held at the district office.

Overall, the meeting focused on ensuring transparency regarding student safety and planning for future board activities. The next meeting will provide further opportunities for the board to set goals and address ongoing concerns within the district.
