Raptor Technologies, the trusted leader in school safety and student wellbeing solutions, announced today that Springtown Independent School District has chosen to enhance campus safety with the adoption of Raptor® Badge Alert, a wearable panic alert system that empowers staff to request help instantly from anywhere on campus. Fully integrated with Raptor Technologies’ Emergency Management platform, the product streamlines communication and coordination during emergencies, improving response time and providing full visibility for safety teams and first responders.

The district is rolling out Raptor Badge Alert across all campuses, giving every staff member, including substitutes, an intuitive, reliable way to initiate alerts and stay connected to emergency protocols. Compliant with the Texas silent panic alert technology mandate and designed specifically for K–12 environments, Raptor Badge Alert is a scalable, fully managed product that helps schools meet evolving safety needs and protect their communities.

"Springtown ISD was proud to be the first district in the nation to pilot Raptor Badge Alert, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From day one, the Raptor team has gone above and beyond with their support and responsiveness. Implementation was smooth, setup was handled for us, and our team was up and running quickly,” said Amanda Lanicek, Chief Technology Officer at Springtown ISD. “We are grateful to partner with a team as dedicated and responsive as Raptor Technologies!”

Enabling Faster, More Reliable Emergency Communication

Raptor Badge Alert is a one-button wearable device that connects directly to Raptor’s Emergency Management platform. Staff can discreetly signal for help, instantly sending alert details, such as type of emergency and location, to administrators, security personnel, and 911-connected responders.

With this deployment, Springtown ISD joins a growing number of districts investing in multi-layered emergency communication strategies that go beyond traditional desktop or app-based products. Raptor’s Emergency Management Suite unifies incident mapping, real-time accountability, and reunification products that empower teams to manage every phase of an emergency from a single platform.

“We’re proud to partner with Springtown ISD to deliver technology that empowers staff and accelerates response times,” said Chris Noell, Chief Product Officer. “Together, we’re building a safer school environment. One that’s proactive, connected, and prepared.”

To further enhance its emergency communication capabilities, Springtown is also leveraging Vivi’s Emergency Visual Notification technology, integrated with Raptor. When an alert is initiated, messages automatically display across classroom and campus screens, ensuring students, staff, and visitors receive timely, clear instructions no matter where they are.
