Keeping Campus Environments Safe

The modern demands for school safety require advanced security solutions to protect the lives of our students, faculty and staff, all the while providing a sense of peace of mind to parents. Safety and security for everyone on campus is vital to any successful learning environment. Therefore, it is critical that in an emergency situation, every second counts and that schools have the immediate ability to properly respond to any circumstanceproviding alerts and needed information to first responders. Whether it is automatic lock-down of a facility or visual verification of the situation at hand, information is key to first responders, so they can determine the best course of action to safely secure the campus.

Monitoring educational environments and gaining better control of who has access to classrooms and other facilities is more important than ever. At the same time, the need to relieve parental concerns must be balanced with declining budgets, aging schools and increased threats within school environments. Well planned and well implemented electronic security solutions can create more secure environments while bridging the competing demands of diminishing resources and our most nurtured environments.
