Suspicious Activity Reporting App

The FortifyFL App, a third-party service, is available online and for download for both Android and Apple devices. This App allows students, parents and the community to submit tips regarding threats or suspicious activities to designated law enforcement officials.

Any tips submitted via FortifyFL are sent to law enforcement officials, and the designated officials are responsible for taking action on the tip.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Making a fake threat of violence is a criminal act that can land you in prison. It doesn't matter if you say it, text it, write it, snap it or post it on social media, students who make threats can face serious consequences. Even if it was meant to be a joke, calling in a fake threat of violence is a state crime in Florida, as well as a federal crime.

Every violent threat is taken seriously, because police don't know if a threat is real or fake. Each time a threat is made against one of our schools man hours and tax dollars are wasted searching the location, and the school day is disrupted. Fake threats can greatly affect absentee rates, and have a profound impact on a student's future.
