STOPit Partnership (COSER 553.020)
Questar III has partnered with STOPit Solutions, one of the nation’s leading experts in school safety, to bring its Anonymous Reporting System (ARS) and comprehensive School Safety Program fully funded to districts across the state of New York.
The combined programs teach and empower students, staff, and administrators to recognize and anonymously report safety, misconduct, and compliance concerns BEFORE they escalate into a crisis while also providing curriculum to educate and help prevent such concerns from ever occurring.
Funding is being provided through the Stop School Violence Act, a Department of Justice grant, recently awarded to Questar III.
