Case Study: Greeneville City Schools prevents student suicides with Gaggle

Greeneville City Schools helps save student lives with Gaggle in a 3,000-student district

Greeneville City Schools, a district serving approximately 3,000 students in rural Tennessee, faced the challenge of monitoring student activity and well-being across its 1:1 Microsoft 365 environment. Without adequate resources to oversee how students were using their devices, the district needed an extra set of eyes. They enlisted Gaggle and its student safety software to help detect early signs of students in crisis.

Gaggle provided 24/7 monitoring of the district's online environment, including a contextual dashboard for easy reference. The solution enabled Greeneville City Schools to intervene in multiple student suicide attempts, as well as incidents involving self-harm, attacks, and inappropriate content. According to a district official, Gaggle has benefitted the district in ways that cannot be measured quantitatively, providing the critical opportunity to save students' lives.
