Wireless infrastructure enables communications that relay vital information. Behind Alyssa’s Law is the simple idea that a proper emergency response happens when everyone involved knows what’s going on – as it happens.
Alyssa’s Law mandates that all public elementary and secondary school buildings be equipped with silent panic alarms that directly notify law enforcement. The Nextivity Connectivity Core helps schools meet the new mandates. Read more about the role of connectivity and wireless infrastructure as part of an overall school safety plan on our Alyssa’s Law blog or IntelliBrief paper.

All school campuses have Wi-Fi networks – and the bigger the campus, the more individual networks. Wi-Fi makes sense for many applications, but a comprehensive wireless strategy includes Wi-Fi and cellular coverage.
Here are some advantages (over Wi-Fi) to covering your campus with a strong off-air cellular signal:
Coordinating transportation and keeping in touch with family, friends, and caregivers help families stay on schedule and know everyone is safe and where they are supposed to be.
Enhancing learning and enriching the classroom experience for students of all ages enable experiences and lessons that cannot come from a static book or lecture.
Sharing school activities with family and friends strengthens ties with the community, which leads to increased engagement with key stakeholders and media as well as more support for resources.
Providing access to modern conveniences while also backing up core administrative and data systems ensure access to the latest technology for work and everyday life.
Reliable cellular coverage enabled students and staff across the district’s elementary, middle, and high school to call 9-1-1 at any time and in any location inside the buildings.
