🚨 Report It, Don’t Repost It! 🚨
Threats are never a joke. If you see something online that could be a threat or put someone in danger, report it to an adult right away. This could be a parent, teacher, school administrator, or local law enforcement.
📲 Remember: Reporting helps keep our schools safe. Reposting only spreads fear and confusion.
Thank you, Pirate Families, for working with us to protect our students! 🏴☠️❤️
