Why Panic Button Technology is Necessary in Private Schools?

We believe 100% that every school should have panic button technology, whether you buy our technology or elsewhere. Delays in communication in attacks in Parkland, Florida and Uvalde, Texas resulted in more people hurt. A swift response in those situations could have limited the damage the shooter was able to cause. We know panic can affect our cognitive abilities; there is no other explanation for a lack of communication in these deadly situations. For these obvious reasons, the safest private schools use panic button technology. In addition, we recommend using multiple methods of communication including panic button technology together. Avoid relying completely on one method of communication. Employing several methods is best practice and ideal for the safest school environment.
