Report a Safety Concern

Our Mission

  • Our mission is to provide professional, timely and efficient emergency preparedness, response and recovery plans, ensure the health and well-being of our students and staff, comply with applicable laws, identify risks, and mitigate liability to create a safe, nurturing and secure school district. The Department of Safety & Security is comprised of three separate departments that include the School Police, Student Health Services, and Emergency Operations.

A Message Regarding Rec​ent School Shootings

  • Fulton County Schools would like to express its deepest sympathy to the families of the victims and those injured in the mass school shootings across our country. Our thoughts are with those communities as they cope with tragedy and heartbreak.

    I am deeply saddened and troubled by the mass shootings that continue to plague our nation.

    Fulton County Schools will not let its guard down when it comes to the safety and security of our students and staff. In recent months, we have taken further steps to strengthen security on all of our campuses. We have retrained our staff on active shooter protocols, added more police officers to our force, and strengthened security measures on everything from our front entry systems, to surveillance cameras.

    We want to keep you continually updated on our plans and remind you of our Safety and Security page that features more information. Please take the time to review the materials by clicking here: http://www.fultonschools.org/safety.

    We will continue to be vigilant in our efforts to keep students and employees protected, emotionally comfortable, and ready to learn.

    Jeff Rose, Ed.D.
    Superintendent

    As part of our ongoing safety and security efforts, Fulton County Schools offers a Quick Tip function on our FCS app. There are posters in schools with steps for students to follow if they have something to report. Contact information is optional, so reports can be made anonymously. The app also has the capability to upload a picture, so students can share threatening or inappropriate social media posts or any activity believed to be suspicious activity.

    When a report comes in through Quick Tip, it is received and investigated by the Department of Safety and Security. They determine where the information gets routed from there (e.g., school principals, Human Resources, the Fulton County Schools police department). The Department of Safety and Security takes all reports to Quick Tips seriously: Any Quick Tip received by the district is investigated.

    The Fulton County Schools app is available for iPhones and Android phones. If a concerned student or parent does not have access to the app, Quick Tips can also be reported on our website. Another contact option is to email safety@fultonschools.org.

    Fulton County Schools is committed to providing a safe learning environment for our students, and we are continually seeking ways to improve. Students, parents, and staff are all encouraged to install the Fulton County Schools app, which includes access to Quick Tips.
