While school shootings are in the news and a growing national problem, schools also have to prepare for the day-to-day emergencies that impact school safety and put school children at risk.
By partnering with local first responders, schools can automatically provide additional data and information to speed up the emergency response by first responders.

In 81% of violent incidents at U.S. schools, at least one person had information that the attacker was thinking about or planning the school attack and failed to report it.
Students, who may not feel comfortable talking directly to an adult or don’t want anyone to know they submitted the tip, can anonymously send a text message to school administrators. Key personnel can respond to any texts submitted in real time to collect additional information and details.
