School Program
The goal of Campus Crime Stoppers is 100% safe schools. This involves more than just taking anonymous tips. Kids today are faced with a lot of dangers, dating violence, internet predators, bullying, drugs, underage drinking and more. We strive to give students access to people and services that can make them safe from all kinds of threats.
Students who step forward with anonymous tips leading to arrests will be eligible for cash rewards through the program based on an internally recognized model.
School and police officials agree that most students want to do the right thing to keep their schools and neighborhoods safe but sometimes fear reprisals. The Student Crime Stoppers Program offers the safety of complete anonymity while promoting responsibility and allowing students to take action against victimization and crime.
How does the program work?
It’s easy. If at any time you have information on a crime or you know someone who has a weapon or illegal drugs or is threatening someone else while at school, just call the Campus Crime Stoppers tips hotline number at 512-499-TIPS (8477).
You could be eligible for up to a $500 reward if your tip leads to an arrest, recovery of weapons, or illegal drugs.
When to Call
- Maybe you overhear someone bragging about having committed a crime.
- Maybe you know someone who is driving a stolen car...or is hiding from the police...or is a robber or drug dealer.
- Or maybe you just see something that doesn't look right. A strange car. A person acting sneaky. Someone with a gun or knife.
If you aren't sure that what you saw or heard is really a crime, call anyway. Let the police decide if it's worth investigating. It may be a piece of a clue to a big crime.
