Teachers are the Prize

The only safety professional development to help prevent shootings,
earn standing ovations from teachers, and inspire teachers (and cops) to postpone retirement.

Schedule an Event →

This is not your typical safety PD.

In just a single day,
your entire staff receives proven, people focused tools to radically reduce vulnerability to school shootings, build deeper trust, and improve student engagements without fear, fluff, or overload.

Teachers love it!
It’s fun, different, and meaningful. Staff walk away feeling encouraged, energized, and equipped with tools they can use the very next day.

This PD includes 2 professional development sessions.
One for your full staff and one for your leadership team. 

Each session lasts just three hours,
but the impact is immediate and long-lasting. 

It focuses on dramatically improving morning arrival (statistically the most dangerous time of the school day) and introduces the 4 Threat Pillars, beginning with Pillar #1: Identify (Awareness), so your team can spot and stop threats sooner.

If you want a school that is safer, more connected, and more loving...this is for you!
