Safer Schools PTT Plan

Do you have what you need to make your school safe?

school safety ptt radio

Is your school protected from the danger of poor voice communications?

Tragically, one of the most frequently cited issues in school shooting responses is communications failure.

Is your school prepared to communicate directly with police in an emergency? Can you communicate with all your faculty by voice quickly?

The good news is that we can help you fix this problem and it’s not expensive.

Education Emergency Comms Checklist

If the worst happens - can you talk directly to responding officers?

Do you have police radio coverage in your schools?

Do you have group voice communications with your staff?

Do you rehearse your emergency communications plan?

How Tango Tango can help

”We have have integrated with our police department here. Getting them to a scene, especially in an active shooting situation is super important. You get on Tango Tango and say "we've got an active shooter at our high school" else, the officers are immediately notified. We don't we don't have to go through the 911 process.

David Wrzesinski, Safety DirectorRobinson Independent School District

”We are extremely pleased with Tango Tango! I often use it while en route to work to monitor our radio traffic and when I am off-duty. The sound quality is excellent! The customer support is exceptional as well. I strongly recommend this app.

The best Emergency Comms for Schools

Are there communication gaps in your Safety Plan?

“We’ve got to have better communication, better plans and we’ve got to rehearse. Communication is at the top – if people can’t disseminate the information, they can’t execute the plan.”

David Wrzesinksi, Safety Director, Robinson Independent School District

How you can close safety gaps with Tango Tango:

Talk to everyone - or select groups - at the push of a button

When multiple people are involved in a time-sensitive situation, there’s no better tool than push-to-talk. One person pushes a button, everyone else hears, no interaction needed on their part.

Use equipment you already own to make everyone safer

Use devices – phones, tablets, and PCs – that are already in the hands of your faculty everyday to communicate faster and be safer. All without breaking the bank.

In a serious emergency, talk directly with first responders

A typical 911 call adds takes 1-2 minutes to pass along information and get first responders on the way. In a school shooting, a shot is fired every 10-15 seconds. For serious emergencies, cut out the communication overhead and talk directly to police so that they can be en route and fully informed ASAP.

Give radio capability to police inside your school

Do your school resource officers say there is poor police radio coverage in your school? The same thing that makes school safe against disaster - concrete & steel in the walls - hinders radio signals. Give your SROs & other first responders Tango Tango push-to-talk.

Buy fewer radios

Wondering why radios cost so much and do so little? Us too. Your school probably has a Wifi network already. Why not use a push-to-talk app to replace your radios and shift radio funding to your Wifi network which helps everyone?

Easily add & change talkgroups

Create unlimited new, encrypted radio channels within our app. Create permanent channels for day-to-day operations or "on the fly" channels for emergent situations as they happen. Groups can be any size. No need to have each radio reprogrammed to change your setup.

Protect your comms

Traditional radios can be monitored by scanners which creates a safety & privacy issue. But, all traffic within our PTT app is AES-256 encrypted - the same encryption used by banks & the military. Traffic in Tango Tango cannot be monitored by scanners. Be confident that your in-school communication is safe in Tango Tango.

Connect to your existing radios or even your school intercom system

Track buses & more

The Tango Tango app provides full GPS tracking capabilities. Just open the Tango Tango app and see where your buses are in real-time and talk to them via push-to-talk as needed. This feature can be turned off for users that do not need it such as teachers.

Why talk directly to first responders in an emergency?

law enforcement radio

You can shave valuable seconds off your response times to on-campus incidents.

Saving seconds saves lives.

Reducing your first responder response times is one of the simplest, least expensive ways to quickly improve your school’s safety. Here’s why:

A phone call to 911 takes about 1-2 minutes

This time is “overhead” to make the call. Someone must make the call, share the information, have it understood, then have it repeated out over a police radio by a dispatcher for officers to react.

For most serious emergencies, time is the critical factor

Studies have shown that, in school shootings, a shot is fired every 10-15 seconds. In many emergencies, a minute can make all the difference.

Direct Comms thru Tango Tango is easy to deploy

You can put direct comms in place in minutes by starting a trial with Tango Tango. Costs are less than $10 *per year* per faculty member. Considering most school safety solutions are expensive and/or require hardware installation, Tango Tango is one of the easiest "quick wins" you can get if want to make your school safer.
