Jupiter Adds Anonymous Hotline for Bully Prevention
        
        
        
        Jupiter Ed has  added an anonymous hotline for reporting bullying to Jupiter iO, its learning  management, gradebook, analytics and student information solution.
The hotline allows students to send messages, which may  include videos, photos or screenshots, to counselors, teachers or other trusted  school personnel. Messages can be sent from any Internet-connected device and  school staff can respond to give guidance or ask for more details without  violating the reporting student's anonymity.
"The reality is that too much bullying goes unreported,  because kids don't want the stigma of being a victim or a 'snitch'," said  David Hundsness, founder and CEO of Jupiter Ed, in a prepared statment.  "This new hotline makes it easier for students to come forward and report  bullying right away, on or off campus, 24x7, and for school staff to help these  kids."
