In keeping with our commitment to uphold federal and state laws, and governing policies and best practices as outlined by the Vermont Principal’s Association (VPA), the BFUHS & & BFMS uphold’s the VPA’s commitment to Racial, Gender-Fair, and Disability Awareness as follows:

The Vermont Principals' Association believes that all individuals should be treated with dignity, fairness, and respect. Students must be able to participate in Association-sponsored activities in an environment that is free of sexual harassment, prejudice, and discrimination. The Vermont Principals’ Association and its member schools are committed to creating an environment in our activities and programs that promotes respect for and appreciation of racial, gender, sexual orientation, religious and ethnic differences, and is disability aware. Preventing prejudice and discrimination begins with every individual.

For more information on the VPA’s policies, please see their published handbooks that govern the 2025-2026 academic year.
