Every U.S. School Can Now Be Safety-Scored—Here’s How Your Support Makes It Possible
For decades, school safety has been fragmented—dependent on local budgets, inconsistent checklists, and reactive planning. But what if every one of America’s 130,000+ K–12 schools could be evaluated against the same rigorous, evidence-based standard?
Today, they can.
Thanks to supporters like you, Protecting Our Students, Inc. has built the first national safety scoring system capable of assessing any school in the United States—from rural elementary campuses to urban high schools—using our proprietary Dynamic Safety Score℠ (DSS).
🔍 How It Works: Safety Scoring at National Scale
We don’t wait for tragedy to act. Our system combines:
- Publicly available data (via trusted sources like SchoolDigger)
- Our 94-Point Safety Zone℠ assessment (covering physical security, mental health, emergency response, and more)
- Community input (any parent, teacher, or advocate can “claim” a school to begin verification)
Once a school completes our 4-level verification process, it earns a real-time Dynamic Safety Score℠—a transparent, comparable rating that shows exactly where it stands and how to improve.
✅ No school is too small. No district too remote.
If it’s a U.S. K–12 school, we can score it.
💡 Why This Matters for Donors Like You
Your investment doesn’t vanish into vague promises. It powers a trackable, scalable system where:
- $500 helps verify one school’s safety baseline
- $5,000 supports a district-wide rollout with first responders
- Every dollar contributes to a publicly visible safety score—so you can see exactly where your impact lands
Unlike one-time drills or static audits, our model delivers continuous improvement: scores update as schools act, creating accountability and momentum.
🌎 The Bigger Vision
We’re not just scoring schools—we’re standardizing safety nationwide.
Imagine a future where:
- Parents can compare safety readiness as easily as test scores
- Superintendents get actionable roadmaps, not just risk reports
- Communities rally around verified progress, not fear
That future is already unfolding—one scored school at a time.
❤️ Join Us
With your continued support, we can bring verified safety to every student in America—regardless of zip code.
Because when safety is measurable, it’s improvable. And every child deserves that chance.
