Washington, D.C.—October 2, 2024—Ingenuity Prep Charter School is proud to announce that it has chosen the CENTEGIX Safety Platform™ to enhance the safety and security of its campus, solidifying its commitment to the well-being of students, staff, and the community. Located in the heart of Washington, D.C., Ingenuity Prep is known for its innovative approach to education, and this new partnership with CENTEGIX further underscores their dedication to fostering a safe and nurturing environment for learning.
A Safer Campus for Students and Staff
The decision to implement CENTEGIX’s Safety Platform comes as part of Ingenuity Prep’s comprehensive strategy to improve school safety. By utilizing CENTEGIX’s wearable technology, every staff member at Ingenuity Prep has the ability to instantly alert administrators and first responders in the event of an emergency—whether it’s a medical situation, a behavioral incident, or a campus-wide threat.
“At Ingenuity Prep, we’ve made it our mission to build a robust culture of safety, backed by cutting-edge tools and systems. Despite our best efforts, we identified a critical gap in the speed and effectiveness of our internal communications during emergencies. CENTEGIX has been a game-changer for us. With its rapid, precise alerts to both administration and staff, we’re able to respond instantly to any situation—whether inside or outside the school. This solution not only enhances the safety of our students but also gives our staff the peace of mind they deserve.,” said Will Stoetzer, CEO at Ingenuity Prep Charter School.
Why CENTEGIX?
CENTEGIX’s Safety Platform is a market-defining incident response system that combines hardware, software, and wireless technology to ensure rapid communication during an emergency. Unlike traditional methods of alerting, CrisisAlert empowers every staff member with a wearable badge that can instantly trigger an alert with the push of a button—eliminating delays and maximizing response times. With audio-visual cues and location-specific information, responders can be directed to the precise location of an incident, minimizing confusion and improving the efficiency of crisis management.
Ingenuity Prep joins a growing number of schools across the country that have adopted CENTEGIX safety solutions as part of their school safety planning. This technology not only meets the unique challenges of today’s educational landscape but also brings peace of mind to school leaders, teachers, and parents alike.
A Partner in School Safety
“Time is the single most critical factor in an emergency,” said Brent Cobb, CEO of CENTEGIX. “Districts spend years preparing for and working to prevent emergencies. When an incident happens, it’s the time that it takes to respond that matters the most. With our CENTEGIX Safety Platform, we’ve taken linear phases of response and compressed them to happen all at once, so that help can arrive as quickly as possible.”
