School safety services:
Ken Trump and his team have 25 years of national and international experience:
-
Creating "peace of mind" for school superintendents, school boards, principals, and their community partners on school safety and crisis preparedness issues
-
Helping school administrators get control of school safety and emergency preparedness planning in their schools and school-community
-
Making school boards and administrators heroes with their parents, community, and media on school safety and preparedness issues
We also specialize in advising and supporting school boards and administrators on school safety issues during highly emotional and/or political circumstances.
We accomplish this through our School Safety Services:
School security assessments provide practical and cost-effective recommendations for security and crisis preparedness planning, violence prevention procedures, physical security measures (access control, communications, alarms, perimeter security, after hours safety, physical design, etc.), school safety professional development training needs, security and police operations, linking security with prevention and intervention services, school-community collaboration, and support service roles in school safety (including facilities, food services, transportation, pupil services, physical and mental health services, technology services, communications offices, etc.)
Post-crisis school safety consulting support services help school board members, superintendents, and principals address parent and school-community concerns about school security and emergency preparedness issues after a crisis.
School emergency planning evaluations and consultation services to help school leaders evaluate school emergency and crisis plans, district and building school crisis teams, school safety drills and exercises, school training on emergency and crisis plans, school crisis communications, and related school emergency planning components.
Facilitated school emergency/crisis tabletop exercises for building and district crisis teams, and their community agency partners, in a half or full-day professional development setting, to help schools learn whether their written school emergency / crisis plans might work in a real emergency.
Proactive school security and emergency preparedness training helps schools improve emergency management and emergency response capacity, lockdown and evacuation procedures, crisis media and communications issues, best practices in security and school crime prevention, understanding national trends in school deaths and violence, managing and assessing student threats, school safety assessment processes, heightened security during national terror alerts, and related school safety hot topics.
Training on managing media and school community communications helps school leaders learn how to effectively communicate school safety and crisis issues with parents, media, and their school community.
School bus security and emergency training helps school transportation managers and school bus drivers prevent and manage violence and emergencies on school buses.
School gang training helps school officials and community partners develop sound gang prevention, intervention, and enforcement strategies.
School terrorism preparedness training helps school officials identify practical, cost-effective, and common sense best practices for "heightened security" and school emergency preparedness during times of national terrorism and security alerts.
