a mobile app has a lot more functionality and can prevent false alarms that are common with panic buttons on a lanyard.

Everyone carriers a cell phone with them everywhere. They find it more important to have than any other object (even a school ID). By utilizing a cell phone for a panic alert system for staff, the entire building is safer.

Chris Noell

Cell phones are like wallets - everyone remembers to bring them so they are at hand during an emergency.

I put more faith in people, not an app, for a child's safety. Cell phones should be banned in school. I might compromise if cell phones where locked in a locker (muted) and/or a zero tolerance policy for cell phones in the classroom. In-between classes, lunch, etc is OK.

I don't think no one ever is . Plus like the town ( Moberly) the city doesn't do their part in trimming back trees or removing dead trees . Or homeowners don't do the same . So when the storms come that's why there are power outages. Or you have ameren in a dispute on what trees they cut on lines .

Belinda Kitchen

Because they only cut trees off the main high line so it's job security when the trees fall on power lines they come out and fix them . The city won't trim trees back out of the lines at all . It's up to homeowners now really but yet they go down the alleys spraying for weeds ?
