As an educator, ensuring the safety of your students is of the utmost importance. Schools are not only responsible for educating students but also for keeping them safe while on campus. In order to ensure that your school is prepared for any emergency, it's essential to have an integrated communication system in place, provide professional development opportunities for teachers, and utilize digital display solutions to improve communication and safety.

Or perhaps you picture teachers sitting passively, flipping through pages of materials, and checking the time. Why is the latter the typical reaction? Because it describes the broad experience for most who have had to sit through hours of teacher professional development that was expected to motivate but lead to feelings of apathy and frustration due to time lost.
