SCASD Services & Support
Safe2Say Something
Do you think someone is going to harm themselves? Did you see something scary that concerns you online? If something makes you uncomfortable, submit a tip. It will be up to your school to determine the next steps. We want to “say something” BEFORE it might be too late.
