    Orange Unified to contract for school visitor clearance technology
    At the May 9,2019 Orange Unified School Board will be voting on allocating $60,000 in state grant monies for a "technology based school safety program for all school sites".

    OUSD Consent Agenda Item 14 E titled RAPTOR TECHNOLOGIES authorizes spending the grant money from the Classified School Employees Professional Development Block Grant .  The state grant grants school districts $117 per full time classified (support staff) employees to implement professional development and school safety plans. Orange Unified's grant allotment is $276, 371.

    The Texas based Raptor Technology system reads state identification cards (aka drivers licensees) to screen the visitor against nationwide sex offender registries. The system can also be locally customized for alerts that identify court restraining orders or custody orders.

    Once the visitor is cleared against the criteria of the local district (which depends on the menu of criteria the district and establishes and purchases) a visitor badge is printed for the visitor.  


    According to Raptor Technology its systems are in use nationwide. Southern California school districts that use it include Alhambra and Irvine. Alhambra Unified uses the Visitor Management System while Irvine uses both the Visitor Management System and the Volunteer Management System for parent volunteers.
