Not Your Grandma’s Schoolhouse Panic Button

Teachers Love Our Personal Duress Solutions
“In the event of any crisis, whether it is an altercation or worse, there is no delay in receiving the appropriate support immediately. No ambiguity communication because there is no verbal communication. It is a fantastic system.”
Middle School Teacher
“It’s a sense of security to know I can push the button and get administration to the scene quickly. It’s also a peace of mind to know if there was a serious situation (like an active assailant) we could get help immediately.”
High School Teacher
“The badge worked exactly the way it was demonstrated during our training. I knew that I could push the button and help would come, so I could take action to stop the fight by calling people who were trained to manage the situation and who could intervene.”
High School Teacher
"I feel like it is a great way to have an immediate contact with administration and first responders in an emergency.”
High School Teacher
“When a medical emergency required immediate attention it is the quickest way to get help without taking the adult in the room away from what they are doing.”
High School Teacher
“It’s just so easy and tracking extreme behaviors or emergency situations is streamlined as well.”
K12 Teacher
“It is a good tool to use to alert administration to potential threats and dangers in a timely manner especially when you cannot reach the office button, a cell phone, or a computer.”
Middle School Teacher
“Super easy! Also, the card is not too heavy for me to wear on my school lanyard. I appreciate that.”
High School Teacher
“CrisisAlert is simple to use, and is always on my lanyard. It gives a peace and comfort in knowing I can click the button 3 times to receive help.”

Solve the Security and Emergency Problems that Plague Your School
In this post-Uvalde world where everyone has a higher sense of awareness and trepidation, teachers, parents, and students alike are demanding schools DO MORE to create safer schools.
Schools searching for meaningful, impactful, and sustainable solutions to enhance campus safety and security need to consider the simplicity and power of personal duress solutions. We firmly believe they should be required technology in each and every school, Some states require them to be implemented, which is a great trend. However, this tech needs to be deployed more vigorously with haste as violence, vaping, and bullying increase on K12 campuses across the United States.
This solution solves the communication problem that often plagues schools with day-to-day issues and major incidents by providing every staff member with the ability to call for help from anywhere and at any time on campus.
When every staff member on campus has the ability to call for help from anywhere and at any time on campus, you are building a safety "OWNERSHIP CULTURE" in your community.
When staff members are able to communicate immediately with an easy-to-use solution you can wear like a lanyard or carry in your pocket, then you start solving the safety and security issues that currently plague your schools.
When you slash the rate of major incidents on campus like intruders, active shooters, vaping, and bullying, you have a proven solution that demonstrates a sincere, persistent adoption of your school safety and security strategy.
