Submit Anonymous Tips

You can now submit anonymous tips to the Syracuse City School District.

If you see something suspicious in your school or have specific information about bullying, threats, or other issues that might make your school unsafe, please submit any information, photos, or videos using the instructions below.

Tips will be reviewed by trained school personnel, who may respond to ask for more details and continue the anonymous conversation with you. Tips are entirely anonymous, and your information is not shared with your tip.

Please do not use this form to report emergencies or requests that require immediate law enforcement response. In an emergency, always call 911. If you have a non-emergency request for agency assistance, please contact us at 315-435-4444.
