Strong School Security Assessment
The Strong School Security Assessment provides K–12 school districts with a comprehensive, evidence-based evaluation of their existing security programs, physical safeguards, and operational readiness.
Our structured assessment process identifies strengths, vulnerabilities, and opportunities for improvement, providing district leadership with actionable recommendations to strengthen school safety and support informed security investments.
What We Evaluate
Evaluation of school security policies, emergency management procedures, incident-response protocols, emergency drills, staff preparedness, and coordination with law enforcement and emergency response agencies to assess organizational readiness and response capabilities.
Security & Emergency Management
Evaluation of school security staffing levels, personnel qualifications, deployment practices, supervisory oversight, training, post assignments, communications, and operational procedures to assess security force effectiveness, coverage, and accountability.
Security Force
Evaluation of school building entry procedures, access-control systems, visitor management, identification and screening practices, controlled entrances, and procedures for monitoring and restricting unauthorized access.
Entry Control
Fencing & Gates
Evaluation of school perimeter fencing, gates, access points, locking mechanisms, and related physical security measures to identify vulnerabilities and opportunities to strengthen perimeter protection and control unauthorized access.
Parking & Barriers
Evaluation of school parking areas, vehicle circulation, traffic-control measures, protective barriers, pedestrian safety, and vehicle access points to identify vulnerabilities and opportunities to improve campus safety and security.
Evaluation of school building exteriors, doors, windows, locking hardware, structural access points, and other building-envelope security features to identify vulnerabilities and recommend improvements that strengthen physical protection and reduce unauthorized access.
