Introducing Share911

As a former special education teacher, campus administrator and district level administrator; I knew the value of communication and accountability during an emergency. When I had the opportunity to see Share911 in action, during a drill at a neighboring district, I saw that we may have a solution for our concerns. Continued communication with the members of the Share911 Team proved that the goal of Share911 was not to simply sell a product, but to build a partnership that would continue to grow and evolve as security needs change.

As a school administrator, Share 911 has been a valuable tool that has helped me to increase student and staff safety at schools. Prior models of calling the front desk, discussing the emergency, making a PA announcement with safety directions, responding to constant emails and phone calls, all while trying to navigate an emergency; cost time, create chaos, and ultimately, leave the people we care about in harm’s way for longer than necessary. Share 911 allows staff to be able to quickly communicate an emergency with little to no time lapse. The swiftness of communication about an emergency allows all staff to get themselves and their students to safety quickly.
