School Safety Tip Line Pro Edition:
The majority of student tips are reported in the afterschool and evening hours. Some tips impact student safety immediately and can’t wait until the following morning when school personnel arrive on campus.
24/7/365 Tip Monitoring:
The Pro Edition of our tip line is set up so that all tips are received and triaged by our tip line technicians 24/7/365. Calls are made to key personnel in the district within minutes when a student’s safety is in immediate danger or when there is a threat of school attack. Regardless of the time of day (or night) that tips arrive our tip center is working to keep your students safe. Tips that don’t require immediate action are routed to school personnel by email. Tip line technicians identify the type of tip received and the associated level of urgency so that school administrators can investigate and resolve the tip as efficiently as possible.
The Pro Edition includes all of the features from our Standard Edition.

Alyssa’s Law – School Safety Panic App
Immediate contact with first responders when a life-threatening emergency occurs
Alyssa’s Law has brought heightened awareness to the role of first responders and the importance of an immediate response when a life-threatening emergency occurs. Sprigeo has a long-standing relationship with law enforcement agencies and school districts that has allowed us to provide a direct connection between these two organizations in times of crisis. Students and school staff can send an immediate alert to law enforcement dispatch centers so that response time is minimized. The Sprigeo school safety app also allows school staff to send a non-emergency alert to all designated school personal when a school-based issue doesn’t require a first responder. Sprigeo has a proven track record of coordinating multiple law enforcement agencies throughout entire states. Our current statewide implementations include Oregon, Idaho, Illinois, Montana and Ohio.

Staff Reporting – Title IX, Child Molestation, Grooming
Immediate, anonymous reporting for school district staff members
The growing prevalence of incidents related to Title IX violations, child molestation and grooming has created an unsafe environment for both staff and students. Identifying incidents early is crucial to preventing further harm. The staff version of Sprigeo’s tip line allows staff members to anonymously report incidents related to Title IX violations, child molestation and grooming. Tips can be directed to selected individuals at the district level who have been tasked with reporting violations and/or child safety, thus ensuring further anonymity for the reporter by removing the possibility that a fellow staff member would be notified. Act now to prevent further incidents from occurring.

YouOkay – Student Mental
Health Website
Self harm, Suicide Prevention, Anxiety
What mental health issues are your students struggling with? YouOkay can better inform your district about the most common mental health issues in your schools, so that you can identify and support students at any point throughout the year.
Schools face an increasing need for mental health services. Students come to school feeling anxious, depressed and in need of additional support. Receiving qualified mental health services can be challenging. Students often turn to their peers or social media sites for advice. The YouOkay website was created by qualified mental health professionals with two goals in mind: to provide middle and high school students with relevant tips and ideas for facing common mental health issues and to guide them toward seeking out assistance from a trusted adult.
During the 2021-2022 school year the YouOkay website was piloted by districts around the nation. Thousands of students reported accessing the site, indicating a clear need for the timeliness of the resources as well as affirming the decision to continue sharing the site with a broader number of schools and students.
Contact Sprigeo to learn more about YouOkay and how you can use this site in your district. Visit YouOkay.org to see the site.
