• Improving School Safety Through Bystander Reporting: A Toolkit for Strengthening K-12 Reporting Programs

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) released the Anonymized Threat Response Guidance: A Toolkit for K-12 Schools, a new resource to help kindergarten through grade 12 (K-12) schools and their law enforcement and community partners create tailored approaches to addressing anonymous threats of violence, including those received on social media. The toolkit outlines steps school leaders can take to assess and respond to anonymous threats, better prepare for and prevent future threats, and work in coordination with law enforcement and other local partners when threats arise. It is co-sealed with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), which provided expert feedback on the toolkit’s key principles and strategies.

The toolkit emphasizes six key strategies for schools to consider when addressing anonymous threats:

• Build awareness about reporting to detect threats early and deter future threats.

• Develop a partnership structure that will help address threats. This includes school administrators, law enforcement personnel and mental health professionals.

• Engage law enforcement to manage threat situations and decide when to scale response actions up or down.

• Balance initial response steps to ensure the campus is safe. Most critically, treat each threat as credible, and from there, work with necessary partners to determine how to approach an immediate response.

• When appropriate, tap into multidisciplinary threat assessment teams to support interventions and expedite response if the subject who made the threat becomes known.

• Take steps throughout the school year to prepare for threats. Establish a response protocol and practice other types of emergency management activities, such as training exercises for staff.
