What is Alyssa's Law?

Alyssa's Law requires public elementary and secondary schools in adopting states to be equipped with silent panic alarms directly linked to law enforcement, so first responders can reach a school in a critical incident as quickly as possible.

Is it on every teacher?

Yes. Districts issue the Anywhere Badge or Fob to teachers and staff as part of the standard credential they already wear.

Does it work outside the building?

Yes. Centurion Anywhere GPS covers outdoor spaces, fields, and bus loops. Inside covered buildings, Centurion Anywhere RTLS adds room and floor location.

Does dispatch see the school and room?

RapidSOS delivers the registered school, staff identity, and live location into the 911 CAD where supported and configured; indoor room-level resolution lands with the RTLS deployment.

The fastest classroom emergency is the one nobody has to dial.

When a classroom emergency starts, teachers have seconds, not minutes, and both hands are usually busy with students. Phones are in desks. Codes are buried in handbooks. Silent activation is the only realistic answer.

WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE

Silent activation while protecting student visibility into the situation
No reliance on a personal phone or remembering a code
Coverage across classrooms, hallways, fields, and bus loops
A defensible, statewide-aligned safety posture for the board and parents

Centurion Anywhere multi-function wearable, with a blue square button and a red round button

Simple for the wearer. Clear for the team.

Designed for moments when fine motor skills, memory and a phone cannot be counted on. Choose a button to see how the illustrated school configuration routes it.

Routing example only; nothing is sent. Notification paths and button behavior are confirmed with each customer during deployment.

Response-ready for k-12 education.

Silent press-and-hold

A discreet two-second hold fires the alert without spoken commands or visible app interaction.

GPS, campus-wide

Centurion Anywhere GPS covers outdoor spaces and bus loops with live location to 911 via RapidSOS where supported and configured.

RTLS for schools

Room and floor location in covered buildings via Centurion Anywhere RTLS.

Built for the school day

Issued institutionally to teachers and staff: no app installs, no BYOD, no consumer accounts.

Alyssa’s Law-aligned

Designed against the silent panic activation standard set by Alyssa’s Law.

Defensible posture

A clear, auditable safety program for boards, parents, and authorities.

Centurion Anywhere RTLS for schools

Bluetooth anchors installed in covered areas let an alert be associated with a mapped room and floor, such as Room 214 on Floor 2. The exact configuration is reviewed with each district.

In the illustrated school configuration, the red button sends a text and email to the internal school team and the blue button alerts police via RapidSOS. Routing is confirmed with each district during deployment.
