Ensuring the safety of our students and schools is always a top priority for us at Danbury Schools.  The A.L.I.C.E program is a major compont of school safety plan in the event of an dangerous situation.  A.L.I.C.E. procedures are reviewed with students and staff every year and drills are conducted to maintain readiness.  More information on the program is available below.

 

 

We depend on everyone,  parents, students and staff, to maintain safety awareness and report any concerns to the appropriate authorities. 

In other situations, Danbury teachers and staff will always take any reported concerns seriously and ensure they are handled appropriately.  If you're unable or uncomfortable reporting in person, we provide several alternatives for students, parents, and staff to share information.

 

Call or Text 1-844-SaferOH (1-844-723-3764) This line is answered 24/7 by analysts in Ohio Homeland Security’s Threat Assessment and Prevention (TAP) Unit.  Calls or text messages to this line are immediately dispatched to either local law enforcement in the event of a report of criminal / violent threats or to school officials for all other non-criminal reports.  This tip line will allow students and adults to anonymously share information with school officials and law enforcement about threats to student safety - whether that involves a threatened mass incident or harm to a single student.  More information is available on the Ohio Department of Education's Safer Schools Website: https://saferschools.ohio.gov/content/tip_line_information

 

 

Call 1-866-listen2me (1-866-547-8362) This tip line is provided by the district and allows callers the option of leaving a recorded message or speaking directly with someone who can provide free, confidential, and immediate crisis intervention.  This system is for students and parents to report concerns which may affect the peace of mind of students or jeopardize the safety of people or school facilities.  Concerns may include, but are not limited to, bullying, abuse, bomb threats, cyber crimes, discrimination, drugs, health concerns, suspicious behavior, vandalism, fighting, & weapons. Helpline information helps us maintain school environments that are safe and conducive for learning.  

This system accepts online reports as well .  To report online, go to our district website, click on student safety, then click on Safe School Help Online or click here.  Any reports to this system have the option to remain anonymous.

 

Students also have the option to directly message a teacher or staff member through Schoology to report any concerns.

 

On behalf of the Danbury Board of Education and all district employees, the safety of our students is a top priority. It is only in working together that we can continue to make this the positive learning environment that our students can all thrive. 

 

Sincerely,

Cari Buehler
