When selecting a school safety software provider, it’s important to evaluate the options carefully. Some platforms are robust and provide features with flexible workflows to meet each school’s unique needs.

"When we purchased Raptor Emergency Management, we knew the product adopted and used the SRP and SRM, but we did not completely realize the tremendous benefit this would have on our recovery efforts. Utilizing Raptor Reunification has expedited our recovery efforts by simultaneously speeding up our reunification process and improving our overall student accountability. Accounting for every student is paramount and the ability to do this electronically and monitor it remotely from our emergency operations center is critical."
Mike Newton, Director of Safety & Security, Elizabeth School District, CO
“The biggest benefit of the Raptor Emergency Management System is the communication and speed of notifications. With Raptor, I Know I can initiate an emergency and within seconds, everything has gone out and everyone has been notified.”
Craig Scheel, SRO, Colchester Public School District, CT
“I really like the group messaging feature in the Raptor Alert app. This has allowed for real-time communication during both drills and emergencies. All staff have jumped on board, likely because of its ease of use. This has allowed district office staff to have peace of mind without rushing to a scene prior to knowing the full scope of the situation.”
Troy Seyfert, Director of Technology, School District of Menomonee Falls, WI
Simultaneous communications and the ability to give multiple incident leaders updated status reports in an instant — the ability to monitor status without a lot of confusing chatter — plus the accountability: we knew where resources were needed, and the [Raptor] app freed personnel to be shifted appropriately.”
Christopher Parks, School Resource Officer, Brighton High School, MI
At the center of the Raptor Emergency Management Suite is Raptor Alert and Raptor Badge Alert, which provide a silent panic alert system for school staff. Raptor alerting technology expedites and streamlines emergency response by allowing users to initiate an emergency directly through 911 and provide critical information to first responders, law enforcement, and campus personnel.
