Bill Bryson, technology director at Rock Ridge Schools, and John Connolly, chief technology and operations officer at Consolidated High School District 230, bring their combined expertise to share the impact of technology on school security.
While they may work in different school districts, Bill and John share a common approach to safety. In this episode, they discuss the technology initiatives their schools have implemented to enhance lockdown procedures. By integrating systems, such as PA announcements and automated door locks, their schools help ensure a coordinated and immediate response to lockdown triggers.
More episode highlights include the lessons learned from lockdown drills and false alarms, AI integration in school security, growing recognition of creating strong, ongoing relationships with law enforcement, and more.
