Peer Mediation is a conflict resolution program in which trained student mediators help peers resolve interpersonal conflicts. Peer Mediation is voluntary, confidential and proven to be one of the most effective approaches to solving student disputes. It is monitored by a counselor or social worker. Students needing peer mediation may sign up in the counseling office.

The six grade classes are presented a program in the fall about how to recognize and handle bullying situations.

There is a confidential phone line that is monitored in the counseling office to report incidences of student to student bullying that is happening in school. That number is (586) 648-2500 ext. 2121

Each year, Macomb Family Services offers these programs in our school. These are individual or small group meetings, over six sessions for students struggling with anger or at-risk students in our school through the counseling office. These services are free of charge.

This is another program offered through Macomb Family Services. A prevention specialist trains approximately 10-15 students each year to join the ongoing group. These students can, if necessary, direct friends or other students to appropriate community resources for further assistance. The peer educator also provides and/or participates in activities that promote and encourage healthy choices within their schools or communities.
