Carousel Digital Signage has partnered with Raptor Technologies to enhance school safety through real-time digital alerts, making campuses better equipped to respond in critical situations. The collaboration integrates Raptor Alert with Carousel Cloud, enabling schools to quickly share safety information and emergency updates across digital signage networks.
With Raptor Alert, school staff can initiate an emergency response alert to inform first responders, law enforcement, and campus personnel simultaneously. This allows schools to communicate and coordinate effectively during emergencies, helping ensure swift and organized responses when timing is crucial.
Operating on the school’s IT network, Carousel Cloud instantly recognizes Raptor Alert activations and sends alerts to screens, mobile devices, and other endpoints, ensuring that crucial updates reach the right people in real time. This seamless integration between Carousel and Raptor aims to provide a faster, more coordinated approach to school safety.
“Our partnership with Carousel Digital Signage enhances our shared mission to protect K-12 students and staff through integrated, reliable safety solutions,” said Chris Noell, Chief Product Officer, Raptor Technologies. “By leveraging real-time digital signage, schools gain an immediate communication pathway that keeps everyone informed and responsive in critical moments. This collaboration ensures schools are better prepared to swiftly coordinate response efforts and make every second count in an emergency.”
This partnership aligns with Carousel Digital Signage’s ongoing commitment to K-12 safety. Last year, Carousel launched a social and emotional learning (SEL) initiative to help schools share important procedures through digital signage. This included a free library of SEL templates and guidance on effectively communicating across different grade levels.
“Our new relationship with Raptor Technologies represents the next step in our efforts to keep students and faculty informed, safe and resilient across all grade levels,” said Eric Henry, President, Carousel Digital Signage. “Carousel Cloud’s open IT platform invites clean interoperability and efficient workflows with innovative companies such as Raptor, which shares our philosophy and our ambition to make schools a safer place to learn.”
