Additionally, if I have reasonable cause to believe that an adult with whom I have had contact has abused a child, I may be required to report the abuse.

Child Abuse. This school believes child abuse is mistreatment or neglect of a child by any parent(s) or other guardian, whether intentional or not, that results in injury or harm to the child. This includes physical abuse, emotional abuse, verbal abuse, sexual abuse or neglect.
