At 11:10 a.m. on Tuesday, April 20, 1999, ten years ago today, two students at Columbine High School, in the heartland of our nation, changed the way the world looked at school safety. Since that day legislation has passed mandating schools maintain emergency preparedness plans (view example), review plans on a regular basis, and better coordinate with first responders.

To that end, many companies are providing technological solutions to comprehensive districts, independent schools, colleges and universities, and even workplaces, to facilitate in the dissemination of critical information and aid interdisciplinary communication. Any facility frequented by the public should have some plan in place to deal with a potential crisis.
