Case Study: The Greater Dayton School achieves enhanced campus safety and faster investigations with Avigilon

Greater Dayton School - Customer Case Study

The Greater Dayton School (GDS) is Ohio’s first private non‑religious school focused on under‑resourced children, serving about 150 students from Pre‑K to fifth grade (with plans to extend to eighth). With a 100,000‑square‑foot campus and outdated cameras and radios that offered poor image quality, limited storage and weak audio/range, GDS needed a more robust, integrated security and communications system to achieve its goal of becoming the safest school in Ohio.

After consulting security experts, GDS deployed Motorola Solutions technologies — including Avigilon Unity video and access, HALO sensors and TLK 100 radios — creating a single, interoperable ecosystem. The upgrades delivered full‑time, high‑quality video with AI image search (making investigations four times faster), improved radio range and audio, streamlined access control, easier evidence sharing with police, and real‑world benefits such as quickly locating a student’s lost medical device.
