The school experience has changed dramatically over the last few decades. According to the Bureau of Justice, 12-18-year-old students were victimized 827,000 times in 2017. The following year, more than 3,000 threats or incidents of violence occurred in K-12 schools, as reported in Educator’s School Safety Network’s 2018-2019 report.

To counter this, school administrators have begun taking drastic measures. However, protecting a school’s staff, students, and facilities requires more than reactive solutions such as an alarm system – you need proactive security tools. If your Brownsville, TX campus needs a school security overhaul, look no further than Avigilon products.

Keeping Classrooms Safe

A comprehensive security plan can include surveillance cameras, access control systems, motion and activity detectors, responsive lighting and more. Being proactive, though, is imperative when it comes to campus safety.

For example, in one Tennessee elementary school, placing a 360-degree Avigilon H4 Fisheye camera assisted personnel in identifying and responding to critical events such as bullying. Safety can go beyond cameras, though, with Avigilon’s Access Control Manager (ACM). During an emergency, access to any hallway or room is immediately denied to anyone without the proper security clearance.

Types of Products

With a suite of video infrastructure, hardware, and software, an Avigilon setup can prevent bullying and provide evidence in case of classroom incidents. Video intercoms and multi-sensor cameras featuring self-learning video analytics are two common security solutions used by campuses, and analog video encoders are a cost-effective way to transition your legacy analog system to a modern network-based system.
