Though some area schools have been doing in-person instruction for weeks, all Nashville schools will return to in-person instruction full time at the beginning of January. Fortunately, administrators and other staff members have the Winter Holiday Break to finalize preparations for the students’ return.
Though a major focus has been centered around COVID-19 safety protocols this school year, school districts have not lost sight of other school safety and security measures. Like every other year, protecting students and staff from security threats and keeping everyone safe inside the facility remains a top priority.
One of the biggest school security concerns is active shooter situations. School districts run active shooter drills during the school day and coordinate with the police to keep everyone safe while providing a comfortable environment.
The easiest way for an active shooter to enter your school is through a window or glass door. With a shot fired, glass shatters upon impact, and the shooter can gain entry in seconds. To increase security in an active shooter situation, it’s critical to secure the glass around the perimeter of your facility. But who can you trust to secure your windows and glass doors to the highest quality standard?
Solar Insulation Window Films of Nashville has been furnishing and installing high-quality safety and security film in Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky for more than 45 years. From schools, homes, businesses, government buildings, churches, hospitals, military bases, and some of Nashville’s greatest treasures, including Cheekwood and the Ryman, we’ve truly done it all.
While our safety and security film won’t stop a bullet, it will hold the glass in place upon impact, forcing the active shooter to use excessive, blunt force to gain entry. When every second counts, high-quality safety and security film, along with a safety attachment system, has been shown to slow active shooters down by more than 90 seconds, giving emergency responders more time to arrive and everyone inside a chance to take cover.
To increase security before the students’ return in full capacity this January, we recommend taking advantage of the school’s winter holiday. This way, we can perform the installation when the school is empty, so you won’t have to worry about any disruptions!
