LenSec, the leading provider of
IP-based video surveillance solutions to cities, school districts, and
universities, announces their selection by the El Paso Independent
School District (EPISD) to provide a
district-wide IP video surveillance solution for their network of middle
and high school campuses.
First organized in 1883, the El Paso Independent School District is the
largest district in the Texas Education Agency’s
Educational Service Center - Region 19. With more than 63,000 students
in 92 campuses, EPISD also is the seventh largest district in Texas and
the 57th largest district in the United States. It also is El Paso’s
largest employer with nearly 9,000 employees and has an annual operating
budget of $446 million.
According to Victor Araiza, El Paso ISD Police Chief, “We
needed a comprehensive platform for crisis response that can help us
stop an incident before it even occurs. With this new video surveillance
system, EPISD police personnel can proactively monitor LenSec’s
highly intuitive map-based user interface for all secondary campuses in
a matter of seconds. As a result, our officers as well as campus
administrators will be able to quickly locate areas of concern and
investigate those areas in the fastest and in the most efficient way as
possible.”
Chief Araiza further believes that quick emergency response capability
via LenSec’s network video surveillance will
provide a substantial, positive impact on safety concerns. The new system’s
presence is expected to encourage good student behavior and provide the
ability to archive and document incidents for the accurate execution of
both administrative and police procedures.
“I am confident that LenSec’s
system will be a valuable tool for EPISD police and administration in
their efforts to maintain order and discipline within their schools,”states Alan Morris, LenSec Regional Sales Director.“In
fact, network video surveillance has been shown to be an effective tool
for school leaders to increase the safety and security of their campuses
by allowing seamless collaboration across all authorized agencies and
departments in the event of an incident. By choosing to employ an
advanced IP video surveillance system such as LenSec’s,
the EPISD Board of Trustees and Superintendent both recognize the
significance of creating a safe and secure learning environment for
EPISD students and are taking all necessary steps to ensure their utmost
protection.”
