Below are ways we train our current faculty and staff members.

• 根据康涅狄格州的法律，所有新教职员工都要接受培训，了解当他们怀疑或认为18岁以下的儿童受到虐待时，他们有义务报告, 被忽视的, 或处于迫在眉睫的严重伤害风险.
• 学校的 社区操守委员会 (看到Amanac) also regularly reviews policies and procedures related to sexual misconduct, 并对教师培训提出建议，以改善我们对事件的反应.
• 教师 members have been instructed to relay swiftly any concerns, 知识, 或与学生安全有关的怀疑向值日主任及学生事务主任汇报, who will in turn notify the local authorities, 根据需要.
• All faculty and staff members review and sign the Code of Ethical Conduct for Employees in Relation to 学生 (看到年鉴). 所有涉嫌违规的报告均由社区行为委员会(CCC)审查和回应。.

• 在秋季的班会上, 我们将解释康涅狄格州关于双方同意的性行为的法律. These meetings will include discussions about what 性同意和法定强奸的意思.
• 在课堂上也是如此, students will be reminded that as a matter of policy and prudence, we often notify parents when we encounter students who may have had sexual contact, 如果双方自愿的行为超出了该州三年的限制，在康涅狄格州被视为法定强奸，我们总是会通知父母. The definitions can seem complicated based on the ages of the people involved. 最相关的一点是，国家的三年限制适用于年龄较小的人是13-15岁，而年龄较大的人是3岁以上. If the person is under 13, there are different criminal statutes.
• We would like our students to understand that they -- especially when one student is more than three years older -- are at risk of being reported to local authorities for criminal prosecution if the encounter meets a definition of statutory rape; sometimes the School may act as the reporter, 即使这些行为是双方自愿的. The reporter may also be the younger student or the younger student's parents.
• 我们邀请在青少年行为方面受过训练和专业的演讲者来讨论话题，鼓励更多的理解. 演讲者包括: 辛迪•皮尔斯著名的人类性学专家; 奥拉朱旺Rahim on mental health awareness, depression, and suicide prevention; 马特Bellace on the prevention of substance abuse; and 詹妮弗·芬尼·博伊兰, noted speaker on issues of LGBTQ awareness; and health education consultant, 贾丝廷丰特, who addresses healthy decision making and consent.
• 通过人类发展课程, lower mids will also learn about bystander training, and other ways to help keep themselves and their friends safe.
