What our clients are saying

With this technology, it is going to better assist us in our response on where to go when we get to that campus. You’re going to get a more rapid response, and you’re going to get our officers on scene dealing with whatever those problems are in a shorter amount of time.

Lieutenant, Meridian Police Department, ID

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.

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.
