Key Services for Hawes Elementary

1. Threat Detection and Risk Assessment

• Leveraging AI-driven analytics, we can identify potential risks both on-campus and online. Our proactive threat detection systems are equipped to scan for irregular behaviors, assess digital communications, and provide early warnings about potential security concerns. This is essential for detecting issues such as cyberbullying, unwanted intrusions, or unusual patterns of activity that may indicate safety threats.

1. Campus Surveillance Solutions

• We offer an array of surveillance solutions, including high-definition cameras and integrated security management platforms. These systems are designed for continuous monitoring of school premises, ensuring full visibility of critical areas such as entrances, playgrounds, and common areas. Our AI-powered video analytics can alert staff in real-time to unauthorized access, suspicious behavior, or unexpected movements during school hours and after hours.

1. Digital Safety and Cybersecurity

• As students increasingly use digital platforms for learning, ensuring online safety has become just as important as physical security. We implement content filtering, monitoring of suspicious activity, and prevention strategies to protect students from online threats and ensure compliance with district-wide digital safety policies.

1. Emergency Response Planning and Support

• GAT Force assists Hawes Elementary in developing comprehensive emergency response plans, providing training, and running safety drills to prepare staff and students for various scenarios. Whether it’s lockdown procedures or evacuation protocols, we work closely with school leadership to establish clear, effective strategies for keeping everyone safe.

1. Integrated Communication Systems

• During an emergency, communication is crucial. Our integrated communication systems ensure that the administration can send alerts and instructions quickly and efficiently to staff, parents, and local law enforcement, minimizing response time and ensuring coordinated actions.
