Commenting on the effectiveness of CommunitySafe, Tracey Carson, Chief Information Officer at Mason City Schools stated, “CommunitySafe has been a great resource for Mason City Schools. The system allows us to contact parents in a matter of minutes, when it really counts. Recently, during a modified lockdown procedure, we were able to effectively communicate with the parents of 6,738 students in minutes.”
Schools around the country are finding it necessary to build more effective ways of communicating. Whether communicating emergency direction or simply providing timely, relevant information, administrators are becoming increasingly aware that communication is essential to building stronger, safer schools and communities.
‘We are launching these seminars due to our personal need and desire to educate schools, communities, organizations and businesses to embrace the need for enhanced emergency and informational communication tools. The seminars are designed to help the audience not just to understand the tools, but to offer a solution that will ultimately help them create a stronger, safer working or, in this case, learning environment,’ said Don Daniels, Senior Vice President of Strategic Planning at CallCommand.
CommunitySafe is a communications system that disseminates vital information to home and wireless phones, PDAs and email inboxes quickly and effectively. It can be used not just in times of emergency but also to efficiently provide a variety of different communications to parents and faculty. The entire process is simple and communications are executed with advanced technology that does not tie up resources such as phone lines, bandwidth or personnel. There are no hardware or software requirements for the CommunitySafe program. Schools, municipalities, churches and organizations are using CommunitySafe to deliver this information to hundreds of thousands of households across the country.
CommunitySafe is a web-based application that can be accessed either through the internet or from any phone or mobile device. The process to send communications is simple and messages can be sent to any number of targeted lists at any time and from any location.
Though designed to be able to aid primarily in emergency situations, schools and other organizations can benefit from using the CommunitySafe program in many ways; to remind parents of school events; to announce in-service days, late starts, or school forums; to target parents and community leaders for upcoming levy campaigns; to invite students’ families to athletic events, choir concerts, award ceremonies, or theatrical productions; the applications are endless.
