The human cost

Students, Parents, and School Staff Don't Need to Be Terrorized by Fake Threats

A hoax is not harmless. A fake bomb threat still means a real lockdown - students sheltering in place, teachers securing classrooms, parents racing to campus, and days of lost instruction. Prevention isn't just cheaper than response. It's how school keeps feeling safe.

Largest cost driver: across four years of national data, the mental-health impact on students exceeds every response expense.
