Safety
District Severe Weather Emergency Procedures
STOPit is a mobile app that empowers any student to anonymously report school safety issues and reach out for help if they or a peer are facing a personal crisis or experiencing situations such as bullying, theft, mental health concerns, violence, sexual harassment, substance abuse or any other student safety concern. This app is available to students 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
How it Works
The STOPit app has two important features:
- Report can be used by students to report incidents to school administrators, SROs and the Director of Safety anonymously. Students can report as much detail as they would like and can even include photos, screenshots and videos. The report is received in real-time, allowing school personnel to quickly respond and begin taking the appropriate action.
- Get Help can be used to access local resources such as law enforcement, behavioral health centers, crisis hotlines and additional resources.
No student information is needed to use STOPit. The only way personally identifiable information will be accessible through STOPit is if a student voluntarily includes it within the content of a report or message. Each school has a unique code for students to enter to ensure their anonymous report is instantly delivered to the appropriate school administrators and SROs.
Students are the most important first responders of school safety, as they are the eyes and ears of what is happening before, during, and after school. Offering this communication tool will enhance our layers of school safety and better promote a “see something, say something, do something” school culture.

BluePoint Silent Panic Alert
Blanco ISD remains steadfast in its commitment to prioritizing the safety of our students, families, and staff. In line with this dedication, the district has been awarded a safety grant to implement the BluePoint Silent Panic Alert System across our facilities. BluePoint Alert is an advanced emergency response system, utilizing pull stations similar to fire alarm pull stations, mobile notification devices, and strategically placed strobe lights within our school buildings. In an emergency, activation of a pull station or mobile panic button triggers immediate communication of the threat via text and phone to emergency personnel, building staff, and district administration. This announcement informs occupants to initiate lockdown procedures and ensure their safety. Moreover, the prominent blue strobe lights installed on the exterior of the buildings and within large common areas such as gyms and cafeterias serve as visible alerts to visitors, preventing them from entering a facility under threat. Through implementing the BluePoint Alert systems, Blanco ISD is taking proactive steps to enhance our school community's safety and security measures.
