Safety & Operation Readiness Report in K-12 Now Available
Drill, reunify, and report—the safety essentials every school needs.
Safety drills are the foundation for responding well in a crisis. But planning, running, and proving they happened too often falls into spreadsheets, paper checklists, and memory at most schools. Safety Manager replaces that patchwork with one platform that schedules and tracks drills, runs realistic scenarios, manages family reunification during real incidents, and gives students and staff an anonymous way to report concerns before they become emergencies.
“I have never found a better software suite than InformaCast to handle any communication challenge we’ve thrown at it.”
Dylan Fresh, Technology Director, St. Mark Village
A safety platform that helps schools practice, respond, and listen—without spreadsheets, paper logs, or extra apps.
Drill Effectively
Schools have to run drills and prove they ran them. Safety Manager replaces shared spreadsheets and paper logbooks with a single platform that schedules drills across every site, assigns them to the right people, attaches the checklists and templates each drill requires, and produces a digital compliance record at the end. When paired with Singlewire InformaCast, you can also build a scenario that makes the drill feel like the real thing—scrolling messages on screens, audio over speakers, text alerts to staff, so the response becomes muscle memory long before a live incident.
Drill
Scheduling
Schedule drills across every building in your district from one web-based interface, with date and time windows for each drill.
Easy
Assignment
Share the workload across district-level safety leads and site-level coordinators, assigning drills, scheduling them, and updating documentation without stepping on each other.
Add
Checklists
Add tasks to each drill (doors locked, rooms cleared, attendance taken) so the person running it has a checklist and nothing gets skipped.
Document
Templates
Drag-and-drop your drill template documents into the platform, pull them out to use during a drill, and re-attach the completed copy to the drill record.
Compliance
Records
Every drill produces a digital record you can audit at any time, and share—including read-only links—with state or local compliance reviewers.
Reunify Quickly
When emergencies occur, the most important job is accounting for every student. Safety Manager’s family reunification module gives teachers, administrators, and emergency personnel a single real-time view of where every student is, their status, and which guardian is authorized for pick up. There’s no app for teachers to download. Instead they receive a link via text or email that drops them straight into attendance taking for their class. And because roles aren’t siloed, anyone with access can step into any role on a day when a staff member is out.
No App
Required
Teachers receive a text or email link and tap straight into attendance taking—no app to install, no password to remember, no proprietary device.
Student
Updates
Update each student’s status and current location in real time so administrators and emergency personnel always have the latest picture.
Guardian
Verification
When guardians arrive at the reunification site, Safety Manager can help verify they are authorized to pick up students before release.
Off-Site
Support
Run the same workflow at an off-site reunification location so guardians can be screened and reunited with students no matter where the event ends.
Flexible
Roles
Designate roles ahead of time, but let any user with access fill any role on the day. Reunification events are long and unpredictable—staffing flexibility is non-negotiable.
Report Threats
Sometimes the best way to prevent an incident is giving someone the means to speak up early. Safety Manager includes an anonymous tip line that gives students, staff, and community members a low-friction way to flag concerns before they become emergencies. Tips can be submitted with or without contact information and routed to the school administrators, resource officers, and safety teams who can act on them. Every tip is logged, so administrators have a clear record of what was reported.
Anonymous
Submissions
Students, staff, and community members can submit safety concerns with full anonymity or attach contact information if they want a follow-up.
Tip
Monitoring
Designated administrators and school resource officers receive incoming tips in the same platform they already use for visitors, drills, and reunification.
Proactive
Awareness
Get ahead of issues like bullying, threats, substance concerns, and mental health flags before they escalate into incidents.
Digital
Records
Every submitted tip is logged with a timestamp and resolution status so the team has a clear audit trail of what was reported and how it was handled.
Unified
Solution
Tips, drills, and reunification all live on the same platform with the same logins and the same staff workflow without needing additional vendors or logins.
Your connected suite for campus movement and safety.
Visitor Aware
Screen visitors and volunteers in seconds, check against national databases, preregister guests, and use the hardware you already own.
Dismissal Manager
Plan, verify, and track every student’s ride home—bus, car line, walker, or after-school—from one dashboard.
Hall Manager
Issue digital hall passes from student devices, teacher portals, or shared kiosks; enforce smart restrictions; and track student movement.
Safety Manager + InformaCast
Make the drill feel like the real thing. Build the muscle memory that matters.
Pair Safety Manager with InformaCast, and your drills stop being a checklist exercise. Configure a scenario in advance with scrolling messages on building screens, audio over IP speakers, text alerts to staff, family reunification kicked off automatically, and initiate the whole event with a single button when the drill begins. Teachers, administrators, and staff live every step of the response, exactly as they would in a real incident. When the day comes that an actual incident happens, they’re not learning the workflow under stress—they’re carrying out the one they’ve already practiced.
- Preconfigured scenarios that combine drills with intrusive notifications
- Audio, visual, text, and on-screen alerts during the drill, exactly like a live event
- Family reunification kicks off automatically as part of the scenario
- Bidirectional integration with InformaCast to start drills from either interface
Safety Manager is a K–12 safety drill and reunification platform from Singlewire Software that replaces clipboards, paper rosters, and post-drill paperwork with a single digital system for planning, running, and reporting on every school safety drill. Part of the campus movement and safety suite, Safety Manager helps schools run drills more effectively, account for every student in real time, and stay compliant with state and federal safety requirements.
Safety Manager replaces paper rosters, hand-counted student tallies, and post-drill spreadsheets with live digital accountability on any device. Instead of teachers carrying clipboards to evacuation sites and the office collecting forms afterward, every staff member checks students in from a phone or tablet—and administrators see accountability building in real time as it happens. Drill reports are generated automatically; no manual data entry required.
Safety Manager guides schools through every step of a drill—scheduling, communication, running, and reporting. Administrators set drill type, date, and procedures in advance; staff get clear instructions on their phones the day of; and live accountability data flows in as teachers confirm students are with them. After the drill, the report is ready in seconds for state submission or district review.
Safety Manager supports every drill type required by state and federal regulations—fire, lockdown, severe weather, earthquake, bus evacuation, intruder, shelter-in-place, and more. Each drill type comes with a configurable workflow that captures the specific data states require (response times, accountability percentages, deficiencies noted), so one tool covers everything from the annual fire marshal report to lockdown documentation.
Safety Manager turns reunification into a controlled, documented process. Staff scan students into reunification stations, verify pickup against the school’s approved-contact list, and release each student to a verified guardian with a digital record of the handoff. Administrators see live accountability as families are reunited, and post-event reports document every step.
Safety Manager pulls real-time accountability from the staff closest to each student. Teachers confirm each student in their class is present (or absent and where they were), and administrators see a building-wide dashboard that updates in seconds. Students with hall passes, visitors on site, and off-campus students all roll into the same picture—so school leaders know exactly who’s accounted for, who’s still being located, and where to send help.
Safety Manager automatically captures the data states require—drill date and time, response time, accountability percentage, deficiencies, corrective actions—and generates the reports administrators need to file. Schools using Safety Manager stay compliant with state fire marshal requirements and district-specific drill standards without manual data entry or end-of-year scrambles to assemble paper records.
Safety Manager runs in any modern web browser and on iOS and Android devices, so it works on the devices schools already have—Chromebooks, laptops, iPads, teacher phones, administrator phones, front-office computers all without needing to download an app or invest in special hardware. Staff can access Safety Manager even when Wi-Fi is unavailable, with offline accountability that syncs as soon as connectivity returns.
Yes. Safety Manager supports ClassLink, Clever, Google, Microsoft, and other major SSO providers, and syncs rosters via OneRoster or directly from the school’s SIS. Staff and student rosters stay current without manual maintenance, and approved-contact data feeds reunification automatically.
Safety Manager uses the standard roster fields a school already maintains in its SIS—name, grade, classroom, and approved contacts for reunification. Safety Manager doesn’t collect biometric data. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest and meets FERPA, COPPA, and state student-data-privacy requirements.
Safety Manager is one module in Singlewire’s campus movement and safety suite, a connected set of K–12 safety and operations tools that share data across the school day. The suite also includes Visitor Aware (visitor management), Hall Manager (digital hall passes), Dismissal Manager (afternoon dismissal coordination), and Bus Manager (student-to-bus accountability). Schools can adopt one module or the whole suite, and pair the suite with Singlewire’s InformaCast critical communication and incident management platform.
Safety Manager isn’t a standalone drill tracker—it’s part of the campus movement and safety suite, so accountability data flows in from hall passes, dismissal plans, and visitor logs rather than relying on staff memory or a separate roster import. It’s built by Singlewire Software, the same company that powers critical communications and incident management for thousands of K–12 districts through InformaCast, so safety drills and live incident response use the same platform. And it covers the full safety lifecycle—drills, live emergencies, reunification, and reporting—instead of just one component.
