    School safety tip line hits another record with start of school

    Safe2Tell Wyoming shares the following:

    Safe2Tell Wyoming received a record number of tips during the 2018-2019 school year. There were 1,448 tips reported statewide during the 2018-2019 school year, continuing an upward trend since October 2016. The summer break was a relatively slow period for tips, but the system still recorded an increase over the same time last year.

    According to Safe2Tell Program Manager, Bill Morse, “The increase each year in the number of tips submitted by students shows the level of comfort and trust they have in the Safe2Tell Wyoming program.” The top five tips reported for the 2018-2019 school year were suicide threats, drugs, bullying, self-harm, and vaping. Vaping is a new tip category that the program began collecting as of January of 2019 and has quickly made an appearance in the top five.
