School Safety in Northwest Arkansas

Keep your STUDENTS SafeR  in Northwest Arkansas

The safety of students, teachers, and other school staff should be a top priority. In a time when school shootings could happen, it's important to prep and plan. Schools employ various strategies and measures to ensure the safety and well-being of students including:

  • Security Personnel: Many schools have security personnel, such as resource officers or security guards, who are trained to monitor and respond to safety concerns.
  • Controlled Access: Schools often implement controlled access systems, such as locked doors and entry points equipped with intercoms or buzzers.
  • Emergency Planning: Schools develop comprehensive emergency plans that outline protocols for different scenarios, including natural disasters, intruders, or medical emergencies.
  • Surveillance Systems: Many schools employ surveillance cameras strategically placed throughout the campus to monitor activities and deter potential threats.
  • Safety Education and Training: Schools educate students, teachers, and staff about safety measures, emergency procedures, and potential risks.

One portion of planning that's often overlooked is window and glass safety. Even when precautions are taken, shooters can break in to a school by shattering entryway glass with bullets – which is why window glass has been labeled as one of the weakest points of attack.

Safety and security window film offers several benefits that make it a worthwhile choice for enhancing the safety of buildings and occupants.


  • Shatter Resistance: Safety and security window film is designed to hold shattered glass together upon impact.
  • Forced Entry Deterrence:  Security window film reinforces the strength of windows, making it more difficult for unauthorized individuals to break through. It acts as an additional barrier.
