Can First Responders Communicate Within Your School?
It is important to consider the ability of public safety officials to effectively communicate within your schools in the event an emergency arises. The way many schools are constructed can obstruct radio signals and make it difficult or impossible for public safety officials to maintain contact in the event of an emergency.
Michigan representatives have proposed legislation requiring increased school security and emergency responder radio coverage within educational facilities. We have already partnered with many local schools to complete coverage assessments and install signal amplifiers to improve first responder radio communications in spots where signals are degraded.

Can You Communicate With First Responders In An Emergency Situation?
In a life threatening situation, every second counts. Having interoperable communications between school staff and first responders could save lives. Tele-Rad’s work with both schools and first responders radio systems makes us uniquely positioned to help establish these communications systems.
Our teams have successfully implemented interoperability plans for schools and first responders in several counties across the State of Michigan. Contact us today to learn more.

Lockdowns, Access Control, and Surveillance Solutions
Combining voice, video, software and services, the Motorola Solutions Safe Schools ecosystem helps you not only respond and manage both the everyday and the critical emergencies, but also recognize patterns, anticipate actions and help prevent situations as they develop.
The first step in responding to an issue, or minimizing a threat, is knowing that it exists. There are a number of technology solutions designed to detect, such as video surveillance, license plate recognition, access control, and weapons detection.
AI-powered insights enable proactive monitoring and management across campus — enabling you to respond to suspicious behavior before an incident occurs. Self-learning video analytics can detect abnormal or concerning activity, and features like Focus of Attention can easily identify why action may be required. After the fact, features like identity search and appearance search can quickly and seamlessly explore video footage, and track ID badge usage, to review incidents.
Real-time intelligence shares alerts and live video feeds with campus personnel and public safety, enabling a coordinated and informed response. Because a rapid response can be the key to preventing incidents from becoming tragedies.
Vape and Chemical Detectors
Schools across the country are grappling with the pervasive issue of vaping among students, posing significant health risks and disrupting the educational environment. Traditional security measures often fall short in addressing this issue effectively. For example, this issue persists in locations such as bathrooms and locker rooms, where surveillance cameras cannot be placed. Additionally, ensuring comprehensive safety requires monitoring environmental factors such as air quality and sound anomalies, which can indicate potential threats like smoke or aggressive behavior.
The HALO Sensor offers a range of features designed to address various safety concerns, such as vape and substance detection, environmental monitoring, and detection of sound anomalies such as calls for help or increased noise levels.
Through seamless integration with Motorola Solutions’ Orchestrate software, a comprehensive platform for managing safety and security operations, the HALO Sensor enhances its effectiveness by providing real-time data and insights to empower decision-making and response strategies.
Every child has the right to learn in a safe and supportive school environment. By bringing together the technologies and solutions you need to detect, analyze, communicate and respond, we’re helping you build a safe school.
