Creating a safe and healthy learning environment

Your students are at the heart of what we do

As educators, your passion is helping the children of your community learn and grow. But to achieve that, everyone needs to feel safe. Gallagher’s school solutions ensure your community is well protected without the stress of a complicated security system, so you can all get back to doing what you do best – educating and learning.

With the growing popularity of vaping among young people, it’s more important than ever for schools to educate students about the associated risks.

Discouraging vaping can feel like an uphill battle for educators, but the Halo Smart Sensor integrated with Gallagher’s school security solutions can be a valuable tool to help promote health and wellbeing initiatives in a clear, effective, and tangible way.

  • Minimize external threats through end-to-end encryption and user authentications.
