Public schools in the United States are making significant strides to provide safe, secure learning environments for all students. According to the most recent National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) data:

• 97% of schools control access to their buildings during school hours
• 94% of schools hold evacuation drills; 92% conduct lockdown drills
• 83% of schools have security cameras in place
• 84% of high schools and 81% of middle schools have on-site security staff

The National Electrical Manufacturers Association’s NEMA SB40 serves as the primary regulatory standard of Communications Systems for Life Safety in Schools. This publication is an incredibly valuable resource guiding the design and implementation of reliable communication systems that support both daily operations and emergency responses.
