Safety Screening

Yes. We added vestibules (secured glass enclosures) to the main entrance of each elementary and middle school. The high school already has this feature, so no additional construction was necessary.

Parents and visitors will come to the main entrance and push the intercom button to be "buzzed" into the vestibule. They will scan their ID into the SchoolSafeID System, which will conduct a quick background check.

The system conducts a sex offender check.

No. If the individual is not entering the building beyond the vestibule, they do not need to scan their ID.

If there is a potential match, the SchoolSafeID kiosk displays a discreet message to the front office indicating the visitor was "flagged."

No. The SchoolSafeID kiosk is typically used as a self-service kiosk.

The average sign-in/out process takes 10 seconds or less.

If a visitor does not have an ID, a school staff member can manually enter the visitor's information into the system.

Yes, the system takes a photo to keep it on record and to print the visitor's badge. The SchoolSafeID kiosk has a built-in webcam that captures the visitor's image.

Yes, when the visitor scans their ID, they can get a digital visitor's badge to use when signing in during future visits to the school.

No. A visitor's Social Security number or card is not needed to run a sex offender check.
