Hemet Unified School District Aims to Implement Efficient Security Screenings with Evolv
When Dr. Christi Barrett was selected as Superintendent of HUSD in 2016, one of the first things she did was to form an official Security Department. “This was just one of a number of security initiatives we have launched,” she explains. “The culture at Hemet is one where students are always at the center,” Barrett says.“We wanted to be proactive in how we screen anyone entering our schools,” she conveys. “But we had a lot of challenges with manual screenings. The rate and pace at which students could come into the building weren’t manageable due to the volume and compressed timeline of students, staff, and visitors entering our schools each morning.” That’s where Evolv came in. Through the implementation of the Express®, Hemet Unified School District was able to achieve the following:
- Helped create a learning-conducive environment for students, teachers, administrators, and staff
- Helped to reduce lengthy security lines
- Helped to reduce security screening delays
