HALL PASS was developed with one purpose in mind, to protect our most valuable resource, our children. HALL Pass checks each visitor entering a school facility against the National Sex Offender Regisitry. HALL PASS also checks specific school restricted lists and automates custody care, court orders or flags visitors to meet with school staff. Each visitor is provided a name badge with photo and time/date stamped for security. HALL PASS deploys a set of unique algorithms which not only check the presented name of the visitor, but screens all known alias information of individuals listed on the National Sex Offender Registry. This allows the system to trap offenders trying to enter the school using a known alias. HALL PASS will notify school officials in the event of an out of state offender, even if that offender has absconded from the state of compliance. In addition to visitor screening and badges, HALL PASS deploys state of the art alert and monitoring features. These include instant email and text messaging notification of events and an “Instant Alarm” button on each screen. In the event of an imminent threat, the silent alarm feature allows school staff to notify District Police Officers silently without having to escalate volatile situations by visually picking up a telephone. The officer receives notification of the school location and any pertinent information the attendant inputs directly through the HALL PASS Instant Alarm.
