FortifyFL

FortifyFL is a mobile app and web-based tool that allows students, parents, and community members in Florida to anonymously report suspicious activities, potential threats, or safety concerns related to schools. The app immediately forwards these reports to appropriate law enforcement agencies and school officials for rapid response.

School access (proceeding past the front office of any school) is required for every individual that is not a staff member of the St. Johns County School District.  This is done through completion of the district’s volunteer application.
