HALO helps schools coordinate emergency readiness and response. Authorized staff can report protective actions, follow approved response plans, check in, support accountability and reunification, access emergency documents, and communicate within incident-scoped channels. School administrators control users, campuses, roles, and privacy-reduced daily presence data. HALO supports Google, Sign in with Apple, and invited email/password accounts. Signing in alone never grants access; every user needs active school and campus authorization. This release is configured for controlled drill testing. HALO supplements local emergency plans, public-address systems, radios, trained leadership, 911, and first responders; it does not replace them.
