Students and adults share a significant portion of their lives online. Sometimes, that information includes warning signs of risk, threats, or concerning behavior. School technology staff are often among the first to notice these signals, but many are unsure what they are allowed to document, when to escalate concerns, and how to support investigations without crossing legal boundaries.

This session provides practical guidance on recognizing concerning online behavior using publicly available information and documenting it appropriately. Participants will learn when to take action, what information to capture, and how to communicate effectively with administrators and law enforcement. Real-world scenarios will be used to demonstrate how early recognition and documentation can support safety efforts in schools.

This session is designed for technology staff, administrators, and school safety teams who want clear, realistic guidance they can apply immediately.
