The Tippecanoe School Corporation does not tolerate bullying and strives to create an environment where students feel comfortable going to an adult to report a problem.

Cyberbullying is bullying that takes place over digital devices like cell phones and computers, or online on social media. The Indiana Department of Education provides these resources for Bullying and Cyberbullying Prevention and Response.

The TSC provides training to school corporation employees and volunteers who have direct, ongoing contact with students. This training covers the corporation’s bullying prevention policy, plans and procedures.

Any student who believes he or she has been subject to bullying needs to report it immediately, complete an incident report and submit the written report to their school principal.

• Bullying incident report - for students
• Bullying incident report - for parents
• Bullying incident report - for school personnel

The WeTip Hotline allows anyone to make an anonymous report about bullying or any other information related to school safety. The number is 1-800-78-CRIME (1-800-782-7463).

The Mental Health Association of Tippecanoe County has a new, free service for families who are looking for mental health or substance use services for themselves or someone in their family. It can be very difficult to know where to start and this service helps families know how to find the right services for them.

To connect with a Mental Health Navigator, call Mental Health America at 765-742-1800 or email navigator@mhatipp.org to schedule an appointment.
