Secretion is the process of elaborating, releasing, and oozing chemicals, or a secreted chemical substance from a cell or gland. (wikipedia) and bones do not secrete chemicals. They produce cells (red & white blood cells) but do not generate nor separate juices or chemicals from the cells.

Bone don't secrete the hormones. Hormones secrete only by pituitary, thyroid, pancreas (mixed gland). Pituitary gland is master of gland. It is located in the brain.
