Anne Arundel County Public Schools has implemented the Student Safety Hotline.  This program has been developed to provide students with an anonymous method for sharing important information with school staff.  While we continue to encourage students to share knowledge of potentially dangerous actions with parents or school staff members, we believe this hotline will offer students another confidential method for sharing concerns. This Student Safety Hotline is anonymous and toll-free, and you need not give your name.   However, it gives you the ability to report a circumstance that threatens the safety, security, and well being of yourself or others.
