Say Something Anonymous Reporting System
PWCS has recently put out information in their newsletters about a new tipline for students to submit information to school officials. Students can use an app, website, or make a phone call to provide information they are concerned about on a 24/7 basis.
Following are some suggestions for reporting such information:
- Submit an anonymous tip by calling 1-844-5-SAYNOW.
- Call 911 in cases of immediate emergency
Suicide and Crisis Lifeline
988 has been designated as the new nationwide three-digit dialing code that will route callers to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (now known as the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline).
When people call, text, or chat 988, they will be connected to trained counselors that are part of the existing Lifeline network. These trained counselors will listen, understand how their problems are affecting them, provide support, and connect them to resources if necessary.
Canvas Observer Accounts for Parents/Guardians
Parents/Guardians have the ability to obtain an account for Canvas that has an Observer role in all of the classes in which their children are enrolled. This is done by obtaining a pairing code from their student and using that pairing code to apply for their new account. Once their account is created, additional pairing codes for other children in the family can be added so that parents may access the canvas classrooms for all of their students from a single Canvas Observer account.
Directions for this process are posted on the PWCS Canvas & Zoom page. Scroll down to the blue bar “Parent, Guardian, Observer Access Code to Canvas”.
Here you will find information about what the Canvas Observer role is and a summary of what it can and cannot do. Note: Parents/Guardians will not be provided with PWCS Zoom accounts.
