Are you navigating any of these challenges at your school?
- Emergency instructions aren’t always clearly relayed to everyone on campus.
- Response times can be delayed due to lagging equipment and lack of integration.
- PA systems are unreliable, hard to maintain and lack features like zone-specific alerts or mobile management.
- Bells, intercoms, access control and classroom audio don’t all work together seamlessly.
- Resources that could be used for instruction are going to frequent repairs and technician visits.
If so, it’s time to take a fresh look at your technology.
Every school faces its own set of challenges, shaped by its unique environment, needs and community. But addressing these challenges isn’t just about installing new tools—it’s also about crafting thoughtful solutions that work together to keep everyone safe.
You can achieve that with the right blend of integrated technology, thoughtful leadership and close collaboration, and Boxlight can help. Here are some solutions that make it possible.
Conductor: IP-Based Communication for Fast Response
Imagine being able to manage announcements, bell schedules, emergency alerts and more without juggling multiple systems. Conductor simplifies communication and makes it easy to reach the right people at the right time, all throughout the campus.
- Instantly trigger lockdowns, evacuations and other safety protocols with one-click emergency alerts.
- Use zone-based paging to contact specific areas without creating unnecessary disruptions.
- Manage announcements remotely from a smartphone or tablet with mobile access.
- Simultaneously lock doors, display evacuation routes and activate protocols.
Effective communication is critical during emergencies. Conductor’s user-friendly design ensures that administrators can quickly deliver clear, campus-wide messages, creating a safer environment for everyone.
Clear Classroom Audio and Discreet Alerts
Our audio systems are built to make classrooms more secure and engaging. While ensuring that every student can hear their teacher, they also give educators a discreet way to call for help if needed.
- Provide clarity and even sound coverage to every student, no matter where they sit.
- Empower teachers to send silent, one-button emergency notifications right from their microphones.
- Choose between ezRoom, Elevate, Juno, Pro Digital and Lyrik to set up the perfect audio system for each area of campus.
These audio systems do more than amplify voices; they support educators by adding an extra layer of safety and peace of mind, knowing that help is just a button away if needed.

Interactive Displays: Real-Time Safety Messaging for All
Visual communication plays a vital role in ensuring clarity, especially for students with hearing impairments or language barriers. Our interactive displays serve as hubs for both learning and safety messaging.
- Display evacuation routes, real-time updates and safety instructions during emergencies with emergency signage.
- Integrate safety drills through interactive learning features.
- Remotely update displays campus-wide for consistent, accurate messaging.
These displays offer a dynamic way to keep everyone informed during emergencies, providing both accessibility and clarity to every student and staff member.

Proactive Monitoring Keeps Safety Systems Reliable
No school should take a chance on an outdated system failing right when it’s needed most. Modern technologies aligned with NEMA SB40 safety standards ensure that equipment is always functioning optimally, and Boxlight takes these standards seriously.
- Automatically detect and flag malfunctioning devices with self-diagnostics.
- Leverage automated reporting to immediately notify administrators about issues.
- Use energy management tools to schedule device shutdowns during downtime.
Proactive monitoring tools keep systems operational and reliable when it matters most, and that keeps everyone protected from unexpected failures.
Interactive Tools for Better Preparedness
Technology alone doesn’t guarantee safety—it’s also about knowing what to do and where to go during an emergency. Our displays and interactive tools support training efforts to make sure that all students and staff members understand the protocol.
- Practice emergency procedures with interactive displays for safety drill simulations.
- Record lessons and trainings for future use.
- Leverage engaging activities to teach general safety awareness.
With these tools, you can give students and staff valuable practice and a deeper understanding of routine safety procedures, not to mention the confidence that comes with feeling prepared.
We’re honored to partner with districts across the United States to help optimize their technology infrastructures and make their campuses safer. For instance…
Richgrove School District (CA) improved emergency communication and reduced response times with Conductor.
Clint Independent School District (TX) enhanced safety preparedness and classroom engagement using Clevertouch displays and ezRoom systems.
Piedmont Schools (OK) used digital signage to provide clear communication during drills and real-time incidents.
What to Consider When Choosing Technology for School Safety:
- Can the system grow with your needs?
- Does it work seamlessly with existing tools?
- Is it intuitive and simple for staff to manage?
- Does it meet safety standards and provide dependable performance?
