Buckeye Local School District

DATE: August 16, 2021

TO: Teachers and Staff of BUCKEYE LOCAL SCHOOLS:

RE: STOPit

 

We are pleased to announce that our school has enrolled with STOPit. STOPit is a technology platform which will help to deter and mitigate bullying, cyber abuse, and other inappropriate behaviors. Our aim with STOPit is to keep our students safe and cultivate a kind and respectful school climate, online and off.

 

STOPit is a tool that works by empowering students to protect themselves and stand up for their peers online. Students will have access to the STOPit mobile app, which has two features:

Report can be used to anonymously report incidents to school contacts.

 

Messenger can be used to engage in anonymous two-way communication with school contacts.

 

Our designated administration will have access to STOPit’s backend incident management system, STOPit Admin.

 

We will be launching STOPit in August 2021.

 

With questions, please see Buckeye Local Schools Resource Officer, Mike Rose.
