Customer Testimonials

A student had a medical emergency in the classroom. Having the badge allowed me to focus on helping the student and know that help was on the way.
The Jay School High School Teacher
The Jay School Corp., IN

Having a plan and getting the information and practicing the plan like we do during Severe Weather Preparedness Week is ideal, so when the severe weather does strike, you know what to do and you know how to get to your safe location.

Meteorologist, National Weather Service, Indianapolis Office

The CENTEGIX system can dramatically reduce response times in crisis situations — it’s a key part of our safety infrastructure.
Stuart Nichols
Safety Manager, Central Arkansas Library System

CENTEGIX badges have helped us tremendously... should we need to press them in a medical emergency or in a code red situation with an active assailant.
Chelsea Evans
School Resource Officer, Palm Beach County School District, FL

I have a student that experiences seizures. Recently, he went into a seizure while he was standing up. I was trying to keep him from falling on the floor but needed help. I was wearing my CrisisAlert™ badge and was easily able to get to my badge. I was able to continue to hold the student with the badge in my hand while using my thumb to press the button. It was not long before help was entering through both classroom doors. Having the CrisisAlert™ badge made getting help so much easier than it has been in the past!

Always remember that we have two priorities here. One is to ensure that the safety and security of all students and staff remains our number one priority. We have several actions that have been implemented in our system that show our commitment to safety and security. And second is about providing quality educational experiences to every single one of our learners.
Dr. Carmen J. Balgobin
Superintendent, Volusia County Schools, FL

When you have a solution like CENTEGIX and you have the different methods of notification—the computer takeover, the strobes, the intercom message—your response is so much quicker…You don't have any of that apprehension about what's going on.
Sabrina Smith
Director of Safety & Security, Valdosta City Schools, GA

A student had a medical emergency in my classroom. If this situation had occurred before I had CrisisAlert, I wouldn’t be able to stay with the student. I think every school employee everywhere should have these.
Michigan High School Teacher
Landmark Academy, MI

This is a product that’ll benefit all staff in our district. And not just our teachers, but our custodians, our bus drivers, secretaries, food service, you name it. There’s a lot of other entities within a school district. And it allows us to provide that security—and, frankly, the quick response—for all staff.
Dr. Jim McMullen
Assistant Superintendent, Olathe Public Schools, KS

A student was having a meltdown at the beginning of the day. He proceeded to kick, cry, and try to run away. Extra hands were needed from other adults because the student could have fled quickly. It is a fast way to easily alert staff that are able to resolve or help with the situation.
Illinois Elementary School Teacher
Jacksonville School District, IL

I don't know of another product out there that can help control the response time to emergencies. Whether it is a whole campus situation—the unthinkable—or these different medical emergencies, or classroom events. I cannot think of anything that's going to speed up a response the way this does, or enable as many employees to be able to get help and initiate a response.
Dr. Kim Morgan
Superintendent, Brantley County Schools, GA

We looked at many solutions before selecting CENTEGIX. Often, technology doesn't work as advertised, or fees accumulate after signing an agreement, but that wasn't the case with CENTEGIX.
Chris Adler
Director of Emergency Management, Safety and Security, Avita Health System

Since implementing CENTEGIX, suspensions have decreased to just 261—a staggering 81% reduction. That’s not just a data point—it’s a culture shift.
Dr. Michael Triplett
Superintendent, Normandy Schools Collaborative, MO

A student had a medical emergency in my classroom. If this situation had occurred before I had CrisisAlert, I wouldn’t be able to stay with the student. I think every school employee everywhere should have these.
Richmond Teacher
Richmond Community Schools, MI

I had a student who was refusing to follow directions and became very defiant. This student was beginning to get aggressive. I used my badge to alert our campus security monitor to remove the student from the situation. It is a very useful tool when the response was as immediate as it was.
Nevada Elementary School Teacher
Clark County School District, NV

A student was having a severe panic attack, trouble speaking, crying, not able to answer my questions as to what was wrong with her. I used the device to call for administrative help and it worked like it was designed to. Help arrived in a matter of seconds. I saw firsthand how well it works.
Florida Middle School Teacher
Palm Beach County Schools, FL

The 1st time I used it for a student defiant behavior. The lead teacher was absent that day and our classroom phone was not working for us to call the front office. The 2nd time it was a fight during dismissal on the school bus. I feel everyone should have this device because it cutdown the time for help to come, it gives location and the name of the person who needs help. This device should be a safety measure for every company in the US.
Texas Elementary School Teacher

CrisisAlert is the solution we’ve been looking for. Knowing that in healthcare, if there’s a problem, you just hit that badge…This is an outstanding solution to a long-standing problem.
