The HDSB Discriminatory and Harmful Language Protocol provides clear expectations for how Rolling Meadows staff respond when harm is caused. 

Should incidents of discrimination or hate occur at Rolling Meadows, our staff are committed to responding quickly using the protocol. 

This protocol responds to discriminatory language based on the protected grounds in the Ontario Human Rights Code including - race, ancestry, place of origin, colour, ethnic origin, citizenship, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, marital status, family status, or disability. 

All students and staff at Rolling Meadows will be familiar with the DHLP as it is taught proactively in September each year and is referred to on an ongoing basis throughout the school year.
