Planning for Back to School? Discover the Top 10 EntrySign Features Helping Schools Improve Safety, Efficiency and Compliance

As schools across the U.S. head into summer break, it’s the perfect time for administrators, IT directors and operations teams to assess how technology can better support daily operations once students and staff return in the fall. EntrySign is trusted by thousands of schools to simplify sign-in processes, strengthen campus security, and streamline compliance. Here’s how.

1. Campus Safety and Emergency Preparedness

EntrySign supports school safety by integrating with Vivi to deliver real-time alerts and emergency messaging. In the event of a crisis, schools can trigger lockdowns directly from EntrySign and instantly communicate critical instructions to staff and students, helping ensure a swift and coordinated response.

2. SIS Integration for Real-Time Visibility

EntrySign connects with leading Student Information Systems (SIS), automatically syncing student and staff data. This gives schools instant visibility into who is on campus and simplifies administrative tasks.

3. EntrySign Live for Drill and Emergency Management

EntrySign Live is a browser-based app that supports fire drills and evacuations by showing who’s signed in at any moment. Schools can also make fire policies and safety plans available within the app for quick access when it matters most.

4. Door Access Integration

Connect EntrySign to your access control system to improve security and reduce manual processes. One RFID badge can be used for sign-in and door entry, streamlining movement across campus and keeping detailed logs of access.

5. Custom-Branded Kiosks and Screens

We’re proud to offer EntrySign screens fully branded by our in-house design team. Each setup is tailored to reflect your school’s brand, creating a great first impression for students, staff, and visitors.

6. Easy-to-Use Admin Dashboard

The EntrySign back-office suite is simple and intuitive, allowing staff to quickly generate reports, issue RFID badges, and manage people on campus with ease.

7. Health and Safety Compliance

Make sure everyone entering campus sees and acknowledges your safety, visitor, or safeguarding policies by displaying them right on your sign-in screens.

8. Custom Screening Questions

Ask the questions that matter most to your school. Whether it’s health-related screening, background info, or visitor purpose, you’re in control of the data you gather.

9. Smart Document Storage and Alerts

Attach important documents to staff, contractors, or frequent visitors, like background checks, insurance, or risk assessments, and stay ahead when something is about to expire. Stay compliant without the paper chase.

Back-to-school season might still be weeks away, but now is the time to make sure your campus is ready. EntrySign offers a tailored solution for education, built to improve safety, efficiency and compliance from day one.
