Singlewire Software recently released the findings of its new report, “2026 State of Safety & Operational Readiness in K-12 Schools.”
Following up on its inaugural 2025 School Entrance study, this year’s research captured responses from more than 500 school staff members across the United States, revealing “a critical disconnect between school safety priorities and the daily reality of campus security,” according to the company announcement.
“Prioritizing school safety means recognizing that security vulnerabilities aren’t limited to the front door—they are rooted in operational gaps across the entire campus,” says Terry Swanson, president and CEO of Singlewire Software, in the announcement.
“With staff shortages rising and critical disparities emerging, reactive measures are no longer sufficient,” he says. “Schools have the opportunity to empower every staff member, streamline daily accountability processes and ensure that real-time help is accessible wherever and whenever an emergency arises.”
