MITCS supports Safe2Say Something, a youth violence prevention program run by the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General. The program teaches youth and adults how to recognize warning signs and signals, especially within social media, from individuals who may be a threat to themselves or others and to “say something” BEFORE it is too late. With Safe2Say Something, it’s easy and confidential to report safetyconcerns to help prevent violence and tragedies.
Pennsylvania's Safe2Say Something reporting system is intended to facilitate the reporting of sensitive information to our administration and school police officer including information regarding student safety, bullying, violence, drug use or students who may need any type of assistance. This information may be shared with school officials such as principals, school counselors and other administrative personnel as well as school police officers or other law enforcement depending on the situation. It is NOT an emergency hotline. If you need immediate assistance and/or are reporting an event that could immediately affect the school community, please call 911 to be connected to Midland Borough Police.
MITCS encourages students, staff and community members to report information about any non-urgent illegal activity such as vandalism, theft, the sale of drugs or information about crimes that are being planned. Students who discover information on social media platforms like Snapchat, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram or YouTube and confidentially report a tip could help prevent a tragedy. Once again, for urgent matters or emergency situations, please call 911 and speak to a trained dispatcher.
MITCS highly respects and cares for your privacy. Any information reported will be kept strictly confidential. We encourage you to use the Safe2Say Something system responsibly. Adverse consequences, including serious criminal charges may result from the submission of a false report. All submissions can be traced in the event of misuse or abuse of the reporting system.
