Hello McSwain Families,

Anonymous Reporting Form
As shared in our last community meeting, we have launched an additional tool to keep McSwain safe and supportive for all students. Our anonymous reporting system is on our website.
The anonymous reporting form allows us to follow up on potential issues and investigate.
The form is open to parents, students, staff, and the community.
To submit information, click the icon, and the form will appear.
A vital system component is having accurate information about the parties involved to follow up adequately.
This will help with our commitment to keeping our school and community safe. Thank you for your partnership.
