School safety is everyone’s responsibility! The single most effective preventative tool regarding school safety and security is the “If you see something, say something ®” protocol. It is critically important that if students see or hear something that is concerning, they say something to a trusted adult or report it below.
Horry County Schools (HCS) is committed to providing our students and staff members with a safe and secure learning environment that is conducive to learning. In order to fulfill this commitment, we ask all students to report any safety concern to one of the school’s administrators, a teacher, a parent, or another trusted adult. Other reporting methods are also listed below. Please provide adequate information about a safety concern in order for school administrators and/or law enforcement to begin an investigation.

Safety concerns may include the following:
- weapons,
- drugs,
- threats or harassment,
- physical or sexual abuse,
