As part of Snyder ISD's ongoing commitment to school safety, we are excited to add another important piece to our comprehensive safety plan: Crime Stoppers of Snyder ISD.
Over the past year, Snyder ISD has committed approximately $1 million to safety and security improvements, including weapon detection systems, a clear backpack policy, expanding from one to four school resource officers in partnership with the Snyder Police Department, safety specialists, the Guardian Program, and other security measures. Additional safety fencing is also planned through funding from Safety Cycle Grants.
Crime Stoppers of Snyder ISD will build on these efforts by providing students with a safe, anonymous way to report concerns and share information about possible criminal activity or other incidents that may affect school safety. The group recently held its initial meeting and will meet quarterly as preparations continue for the program's launch.
Beginning in the 2027–2028 school year, students may be eligible for cash rewards for anonymous tips that help solve crimes. The anonymous tip line will also launch during the 2027–2028 school year. Stay tuned for an exciting announcement about an April fundraising event benefiting Crime Stoppers of Snyder ISD!
School safety is a shared responsibility. Through continued investments, partnerships with local law enforcement and opportunities for students to speak up, we are working together to keep Snyder ISD schools safe.
