REPORT Don't REPOST!
The single most effective preventative tool regarding school safety is if you See Something, Say Something. If your child sees or hears something that is concerning, they should say something to an adult or report it online using ok2say.com. On an annual basis the district and law enforcement are seeing messages shared repeatedly on social media, and often the same message is edited to replace the school name and then reshared again. When students or adults just repost messages on social media and don’t report through the appropriate channels, it perpetuates fear and creates additional safety issues. It diverts resources from the school and law enforcement, complicates investigations, and makes it challenging to share accurate information with parents in a timely manner, it makes us less safe. Please REPORT and don't REPOST.
