Mandated Reporting

As a reminder to Berkeley County Schools' employees and volunteers, we are ALL mandated reporters of child abuse and neglect. 

Child abuse is defined as "mistreatment or neglect of a child by a parent, guardian, or other caregiver, including physical, emotional, and sexual abuse"
