At YES Prep Public Schools, the safety and security of our students and staff remain at the forefront of every decision we make. In collaboration with Preferred Technologies (Pref-Tech), we have equipped our campuses with state-of-the-art security systems to create safe and secure learning environments across our network.  Through a 15-year partnership with Pref-Tech, we’ve implemented cutting-edge solutions like secure visitor vestibules, monitored perimeter doors, comprehensive access controls, and visible security technology. These systems not only enhance campus safety but also serve as powerful deterrents, promoting peace of mind for students, staff, and families.  This innovative approach to safety recently earned Pref-Tech the 2024 Security Vanguard Project of the Year award. We are proud to work with a trusted partner that shares our commitment to prioritizing student safety and continuously improving security measures.  As a district operating in socioeconomically challenged areas, we understand the importance of building relationships, leveraging community partnerships, and making strategic investments to ensure our students have the safe spaces they deserve to learn and grow.  A heartfelt thank-you to Pref-Tech for their expertise and dedication to our schools. Together, we’re building a brighter, safer future.  #YESPrep #StudentSafety #YESPrep #InnovationInEducation #SchoolSecurity #SecurityVanguardAward #CollaborationForChange SecurityInfoWatch.com https://lnkd.in/gvEEzzKM
