Many organizations deploy multiple safety technologies over time — from video surveillance to mass notification and RTLS. But when these systems operate independently, they can create redundancy, complexity, and rising costs. A unified safety platform connects them into coordinated workflows that enable faster response and more efficient operations.

Teacher retention is closely tied to school safety. When educators feel protected, supported, and confident in emergency systems, stress decreases and engagement grows—making them more likely to stay.

K-12 school safety in 2026 is shaped by data-driven decisions, integrated technologies, and coordinated response. Schools are adopting real-time alerts, wearables, cybersecurity planning, and interoperable systems to improve safety outcomes.
