Notifications & Safety 

The Rave Panic Button is an app that provides a  connection between campuses and employees to 911 and first responders.  When an authorized employee makes an emergency call using the Rave Panic Button app, designated on-site personnel are notified of the emergency based on your location and the emergency type and you are immediately connected to 911.   The app includes the options to report different types of emergencies such as active shooter, fire, medical, police and other.  When an employee presses the button on the app a call is made to 911 and simultaneously notifies district employees either through the app or SMS text message.  

Employees are not required to participate/use the Rave Panic Button, but it is highly encouraged.  The app can only be installed if the user has been approved to use the app and the mobile phone number has been added to the system.  If you want to participate and receive notifications in the case of emergency through the app or SMS text message alerts please respond to this email and include your mobile phone number.  If you do not want to participate no response is required.
