Our Approach & Board Committee
Disclosing and Reporting Suspected Misconduct and Abuse
Gilman School complies with all Maryland state laws regarding reporting suspected abuse and neglect of a child or youth to civil authorities and cooperates with civil authorities investigating reports of suspected abuse or neglect by anyone, including but not limited to school personnel. School personnel shall immediately notify the Head of School and/or Director of Student Safety Oversight of any suspected abuse or neglect. Per the reporting statute's requirement, suspected abuse or neglect (as defined by the statute) shall be reported by school personnel as soon as possible to the Maryland Child Protective Services Hotline at 1-800-917-7383 or local law enforcement. (MD Code, Family Law, § 5-704.)
In addition to school personnel, any person who has reason to believe a child or youth has been subjected to abuse or neglect (as defined by the statute) is legally required to make a report to the Maryland Child Protective Services Hotline at 1-800-917-7383 or local law enforcement. (MD Code, Family Law, § 5-705.)
