Courage2Report

Ensuring the safety and well-being of our students, staff, and school community is always a priority at the West Plains R-VII School District. We are pleased to share that our schools actively participate in the Courage2Report program through the Missouri State Highway Patrol. This vital resource empowers students and parents to anonymously and confidentially report safety concerns, threats, or other concerning behavior. 

What is Courage2Report?
Courage2Report is a confidential reporting tool that allows students and parents to share information about potential dangers, such as bullying, threats, or suspicious activities. Reports can be made online, via the mobile app, or a dedicated phone line, 24/7, and are immediately directed to multiple agencies, including the school district..

- Encourage Participation: Reassure them that their voice matters and that Courage2Report is a safe way to protect themselves and their peers.
- Stay Informed: Familiarize yourself with the reporting process so you can guide your child if they need support.
