We see an opportunity to provide a more comprehensive approach to school security, emphasizing attitude and interaction with students in addition to best-in-class policies and procedures led by seasoned law enforcement veterans.

Comprehensive School Security and Safety Assessment

In a world where safety is paramount, S.T.E.V.E.N. Protection stands as your partner in safeguarding what matters most - your students, staff, and school community. And it all starts with a comprehensive school security and safety assessment. 

At S.T.E.V.E.N. Protection, this is more than an evaluation - we approach every school assessment with a strategic focus that identifies potential security and safety threats, allowing you to take immediate and proactive steps to increase security.

Our Comprehensive School Security and Safety Assessment covers five key areas:

  1. Security: Ensuring the protection of your physical assets and sensitive information.

  2. Safety: Creating an environment where well-being is paramount, both physically and emotionally.

  3. Climate: Cultivating a positive atmosphere that increases trust and respect.

  4. Culture: Fostering a sense of unity and shared responsibility within your school community.

  5. Emergency Preparedness: Equipping you with the tools to respond effectively to unforeseen challenges.

School Security Assessments Include:

  • • Review of current security / safety policies. Supporting strengths and identifying areas for enhancement within your existing policies.

    • Review of current emergency response plans. A focused evaluation of your existing plans for emergency response.

    • Review of reunification plan. Streamlining your reunification procedures to swiftly and confidently unite families during critical times.

    • Review of state required safety drill schedule. Ensuring compliance and readiness by aligning your safety drills with state mandates.

  • • Signage. Is there clear, intuitive signage?

    • Main Entrance. Your main entrance is your first line of defense. Is it well designed?

    • Secured-door policy. Do your secure doors offer a barrier against threats while maintaining accessibility for authorized personnel?

    • Alarm System. Is everything up to standards and in working order?
