Emergency buttons for school buses

Charlotte County Public Schools (CCPS) based in Port Charlotte, Florida has standardized on GPS-driven applications from Everyday Solutions. EveryPoint and an emergency button will be installed on 132 buses at CCPS. In the event of an emergency, the driver can press the emergency button and an alert, including the precise bus location, will be sent via email and text message to school officials. EveryPoint will also supply CCPS with real-time and historical data that can be presented in reports and on maps of the district to monitor activities such as excessive speeding, engine idling and fleet performance.
