1-800-418-6423 x359

If you see any activity which hurts students or your school, you now have a voice. Students of the Higgins Middle School and Peabody Veterans Memorial High School can now report information on illegal activity in their school ANONYMOUSLY.

The Peabody School Department has contracted a service with an outside company, Security Voice, who has provided an 800 number that has been assigned to the school system.

When you dial 1-800-418-6423 Ext. 359, using a touch tone telephone, you will be instructed how to leave your information. You will be reminded NOT to include your name or other information which might identify you. After the instructions, you may record your information.

You should report any information which could negatively inpact your school, fellow students, or staff. Some examples which could hurt you or your school include:

Violence
Theft
Drug or alcohol abuse
Hate crimes
Sexual harassment
Weapons

These types of activity can jeopardize your safety and must be reported.

Security Voice will transcribe your message and send it to your school. Your call cannot be traced. The only person who hears your voice is the one person from Security Voice, who transcribes your message. Students, teachers, staff, parents, and administrators can call the Safe School Helpline.

When you leave a message, you will be issued a case number at the end of the introduction that is yours alone. Enter that case number when updating your message or answering additional questions.

After three school days, by recalling the 800 number and entering your case number, a recording will tell you whether there has been a request for further information. If there has been a request, your answers will again be transcribed and sent to the school. If there are no more questions, this could mean that the school feels they have adequate information to proceed or it could mean that the matter has been fully investigated.
