STOPit gives staff, parents, and kids the tools and opportunity to take positive action against inappropriate incidents. After entering their school's access code, kids can choose between STOPit's two functions: Report and Get Help. The Report button lets kids instantly (and when desired, anonymously) report bullying behavior. They can enter text and also automatically send a photo or video from their mobile device. Kids can connect with their school administrators anonymously through a Messenger feature. The Get Help button lets kids access resources by calling or texting a preset list of resource numbers. Schools can also use the app to send notifications to users about safety alerts or other critical information.
The administrative dashboard allows designees to review incidents and code them based on the status of the follow-up (e.g., active, pending, or closed). Administrators can run reports based on date, location, incident type, or resolution. An activity log lets the main administrator know who made edits in the administrative dashboard. When considering the type of incident, administrators can choose from a list to code the report; the list includes categories like Bullying, Physical Assault, Hazing, Vandalism, False Report, Self-Harm, and more. Additionally, admins can flag the follow-up priority of an incident to None, High, Medium, or Low and provide action and resolution options such as Counseling, Probation, Detention, and so on.
STOPit is free to download, and it's only accessible via an access code provided through a paid subscription by a school or an organization.
Petaluma CIty Schools does not know the identity of the student submitting the report or message. At the student’s discretion, they may choose to voluntarily provide identifying information in the content of the report or message.
The STOPit app can be downloaded onto any mobile device through the Apple App Store or Google Play. Once the app is downloaded, students have access to anonymously submit a report and include details through text, screenshots and videos. Reports are instantly received by assigned school administrators and the Director of Student Services who will then take appropriate actions. One benefit of the STOPit app is that it allows for two-way communication. School administrators have the ability to confirm to the student that the report has been received and ask any necessary follow-up questions. The STOPit mobile app is available to students 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Once the STOPit app has been downloaded, students will be required to enter their unique school code. It is important to enter the correct code that corresponds to their school to ensure any anonymous report that is made is delivered to the appropriate school personnel.
Reports are received by assigned school administrators. If there is a threat of violence the Assistant Superintendent of Student Services or Law Enforcement are also alerted.
The STOPit app may be used by children under the age of 13. If you have questions regarding usage of the app, you may contact the Assistant Superintendent of Student Services.
