Guardians Against Threats Force

Introduction

At GAT Force, our mission is to provide educational institutions and communities with state-of-the-art security solutions through proactive threat detection and management. In today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape, it is essential for schools to have comprehensive safety strategies that safeguard students, faculty, and assets. We are excited to present a customized security initiative designed specifically for Rialto Unified’s California Tech. University High School (Cal Tech High), aimed at reinforcing safety measures through advanced technology and AI-driven monitoring systems.

Current Safety Landscape for Schools

High schools, particularly innovative educational environments like Cal Tech High, face unique safety challenges that require a tailored approach. In addition to typical school-related safety concerns, tech-focused institutions must address potential risks related to cybersecurity, student privacy, and on-campus safety incidents. The increasing digitization of classrooms and extracurricular activities necessitates an integrated security solution that monitors both physical and digital spaces.

GAT Force’s Comprehensive Security Solutions

GAT Force’s partnership with Cal Tech High would focus on a multi-layered security approach, leveraging our cutting-edge AI technologies and a proactive monitoring framework that aligns with Rialto Unified’s commitment to student safety. Our solutions encompass:

1. 24/7 AI-Powered Surveillance Systems

• Installation of high-resolution, intelligent cameras equipped with facial recognition and behavioral analytics capabilities.
• Monitoring of entry and exit points, hallways, common areas, and perimeter boundaries to ensure comprehensive coverage.
• Immediate alerts for any unusual activity or unauthorized access.

1. Threat Intelligence and Response Coordination

• Implementation of AI-driven threat detection software that continuously scans for indicators of potential incidents, including both physical and digital threats.
• Coordination with Rialto Unified’s security teams to establish protocols for emergency response and rapid communication channels with local law enforcement.

1. Cybersecurity and Digital Safety

• Community Engagement: Hosting informational sessions for parents and community stakeholders, fostering a culture of security awareness and shared responsibility.

Grant Alignment and Funding Opportunities

Our solutions are designed not only to meet immediate safety needs but also to align with broader educational and security grant opportunities. Potential funding sources include:

• U.S. Department of Education’s School Safety National Activities (SSNA) Grants: Funding for comprehensive safety initiatives that address violence prevention, mental health services, and emergency management.
• Title IV, Part A of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA): Supports technology-enhanced safety measures and the promotion of student wellness.
• Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) School Violence Prevention Program (SVPP): Grants that focus on implementing evidence-based school security measures.

GAT Force can assist in identifying suitable funding avenues and developing grant proposals to secure resources for the implementation of these solutions.
