Report a Concern System

To ensure that students feel empowered to voice their concerns, we have established clear procedures at Daniel Wright for reporting any issues they may encounter related to bullying, racial harassment, and safety.

How Students Can Report a Concern:

1. Talk to a Trusted Adult: Encourage your child to speak with a teacher or school staff member they trust. These individuals are trained to listen and provide support.

2. Use the Reporting System: We have a reporting tool available called “See Something, Say Something.” This system allows students to report concerns to a monitored Google form.

3. Visit the Support Staff: Students are welcome to visit the administration offices, social worker, or counseling office during school hours to discuss any issues in a safe and confidential environment.

4. Parent-Teacher Communication: As a parent/guardian, you can also relay concerns through direct communication with teachers or school administration.

Encouraging Open Dialogue: We encourage you to talk to your child about the importance of speaking up when they feel uncomfortable or unsafe. Remind them that their voice matters and that there are supportive adults ready to help.

Reporting Anytime: If you believe someone is a threat to themselves, in any imminent danger, or any other extreme concerns, please call 911 or your local police department at one of the numbers below:

• Lincolnshire/Prairie View: (847) 883-9900

• Buffalo Grove: (847) 459-2560
