Morris County Prosecutor’s Office presents anti-bias and bullying program at Randolph Middle School

RANDOLPH TOWNSHIP, N.J. (Morris County) — The Morris County Prosecutor’s Office continued its educational outreach efforts this week as Supervising Assistant Prosecutor Samantha DeNegri and Sergeant Patrick LaGuerre brought their Anti-Bias/Bullying Program to Randolph Middle School last week as part of the district’s annual Week of Respect.

The program, which has reached students in public and private schools across Morris, Sussex, Union, and Warren counties, aims to educate students about the importance of good judgment, responsible online behavior, and the lasting impact of their actions. Over the past year, the Prosecutor’s Office has delivered more than a dozen such presentations throughout the region.

According to the Prosecutor’s Office, the assemblies are designed to be both informative and interactive, giving law enforcement the opportunity to engage directly with students in a meaningful way.

The program emphasizes the serious consequences that can arise from bullying, bias incidents, or inappropriate online conduct. DeNegri and LaGuerre also discussed the county’s zero-tolerance policy for threats of school violence, noting that even remarks made as jokes can result in disciplinary or legal action.

The initiative is part of the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office’s ongoing effort to foster safer, more inclusive school communities and encourage students to think critically about how their words and actions affect others.
