Child Safety At SPH SPH is dedicated to caring for and protecting each one of the students entrusted to us. We seek to receive students as Jesus did in Mark 10: 13 – 16. 13 People were bringing little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them, but the disciples rebuked them. 14 When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. 15 Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.” 16 And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them. All persons are created in the image of God, are created equal, and have the same rights. At SPH, we seek to maintain an environment where children are safe and know they are safe.
Child Safety Policy SPH has established a Child Safety Policy to provide guidelines for creating a safe school environment. The guidelines include:
- personnel screening and training (including volunteers) - prevention, safety measures, and expectations of teachers, staff, and volunteers - responding to reports
Child Safety Personnel A Child Safety Coordinator has been appointed to coordinate the Child Safety Program at SPH-LV. A Child Safety Team supports the Child Safety Coordinator. The Child Safety Team is a small group of school staff whose role is to oversee the policies and procedures that will result in a safe campus environment.
