SAFE SCHOOL HELPLINE FAQ

How do we know it is anonymous?                         

We have contracted this service through Security Voice, an independent company with no other ties to our school.

How does it work?

A toll-free number has been assigned for our school district. When you dial this number from your touch-tone phone, you will be advised how to leave your information. You may exclude your name or other facts that could identify you. Then, record your message.

What type of information should be recorded?

Please report any facts, remarks, or actions that could jeopardize the safety of our children, staff, or schools. Examples of threatening situations include:

-Bullying-Drugs/Alcohol-Weapons

-Violence-Theft-Thoughts of Suicide

What happens next?

Security Voice will send a typed copy of your message to the school. The school will then investigate the report, and determine how best to act on it.
