Erin's Law

 Team,

We will begin our lessons with Miss Tippy in February. The schedule has been placed in the schedules folder on the top of the blog and can also be viewed below. Reach out if you see a big conflict. The following is included on the parent blog. 

Dear Hilton Parent/Guardian,

In the past several years, many states including NY, have passed Erin's Law with the intent of increasing the awareness of child abuse. In Hilton, our elementary schools will continue to work with Community Educators from Bivona Child Advocacy Center to help us deliver the Monique Burr Foundation (MBF) Child Safety Matters™ program from the Monique Burr Foundation for Children. The program consists of two age-appropriate lessons to help children spot and respond to child abuse (physical, sexual and neglect), bullying and digital dangers. Most importantly, it teaches that adults are responsible for children’s safety. The program is based on the latest research and has been reviewed and endorsed by national experts.  

What exactly is covered in the lessons? MBF Child Safety Matters covers personal safety, all types of child abuse, digital abuse, bullying, cyberbullying and other digital dangers. The lessons focus on teaching children to rely on safe adults for support. Lessons are taught using age-appropriate and child-friendly language, fun games, and activities. Take-home items are provided as reminders of the lessons. At K-6, these lessons will be delivered by Bivona Child Advocacy Center Community Educators in February. 

How are Hilton parents involved? We value the ongoing partnership that we share with our families.  Please consider joining us at the Child Safety Parent Overview webinar on Tuesday, January 4th at 6pm. You should register in advance for this webinar using this link:

The recording of this webinar will be posted to the HSCD website in the following days for those families unable to attend live.  Additionally, each lesson in the program includes materials to read and activities for parents to do with their children.

We look forward to this partnership with Bivona, HCSD staff, and HCSD elementary families to foster a safe and positive learning environment for our children. 

Sincerely,

Derek Warren
