Joseph Bonner's "Beyond the Signal: School Safety Without Cell Phones" proposes a comprehensive approach to securing schools in the absence of personal mobile devices. The article outlines seven strategic measures, emphasizing that safety is a systemic issue rather than dependent on individual signals. These measures include reforming emergency drills to focus on active shooter response, fostering a culture of reporting concerning behaviors, and investing in robust physical security for school buildings. Furthermore, Bonner advocates for training teachers as emergency responders, installing panic buttons and intercom systems, and equipping classrooms with emergency kits. Finally, the author stresses the importance of building a unified emergency network to connect parents, schools, and law enforcement, ensuring effective communication and coordination during crises.
