The Wilmington Public Schools is pleased to publish an updated version of its Bullying Prevention and Intervention Plan (BPIP).  After being updated by members of the district Behavioral Health Task Force, a draft of the new BPIP was published online for public comment from May 16, 2025-May 30, 2025.  During this public comment period, community members had the opportunity to read the updates and provide feedback. Feedback was reviewed and can be incorporated into the annual training for staff. The final version of the BPIP is published on the district’s webpage and available in each school office as well as the district office. 

In addition to feedback received by the public, the school committee policy subcommittee reviewed and approved the bullying prevention policy and revisions were also reflected in the final BPIP. The Wilmington Public Schools Bullying Prevention and Intervention Plan (BPIP) meets the requirements of M.G.L. c. 71, §370 and is modeled after the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education’s Model Plan.  In addition, our District’s BPIP aligns with the changes to the discipline law effective in November 2022, “An Act Addressing Barriers to Mental Health,” which requires schools to implement alternative remedies for students, including school-wide models to re-engage students in the learning process through positive behavioral interventions and supports and trauma-sensitive learning models.
