Tech-Driven Student Safety: Unpacking the Power of Raptor Reunification

To shed light on practical implications, Tim Leeseberg, Director of Safety and Security at Highland Country Public School, who has firsthand experience with the program, will discuss how it has shaped their school’s approach to student safety.
