At Alcona Schools, student safety is our top priority. That’s why we support the Okay2Say initiative, which encourages students to speak up when they see or hear something concerning. Whether it’s about a friend, a classmate, or themselves, it’s always Okay2Say. Together, we can create a safer, more supportive school community. #alconaschools #okay2say #studentsafety #tigerpride
