🔷 What is SafeSchool WATCH℠?

The Conversation Starts Here. Your School. Your Voice.
SafeSchool WATCH℠ is a school-specific, community-powered discussion forum embedded within SafeSchool|MAP℠. Every K–12 school in the U.S. has its own dedicated space—like a private Facebook Group—where parents, students, staff, and local stakeholders connect around school safety, support, and culture.

🔑 Key Features

  • 🏫 One Group Per School: Not by ZIP code—each school gets its own WATCH community.

  • 💬 Real-Time Interaction: Post, comment, and exchange safety-related updates and concerns.

  • 🔍 Parent & Student Visibility: Transparent access to school climate and student concerns.

  • 🚨 Safety Flagging System: Tag posts that highlight emerging risks (bullying, vaping, rumors, etc.).

  • 🧭 AI Moderation + Human Oversight: Smart filters and live moderators ensure a safe space.

  • 📌 Sticky Alerts & Community Polls: School leaders or partners can share urgent safety info or get feedback.

🌐 Who Can Join?

SafeSchool WATCH℠ is open to verified members of each school’s community:

  • Parents/Guardians

  • Students (Middle & High School)

    All participants are school-verified and must agree to our Community Guidelines.
