Donna, TX- Donna Independent School District has been recognized on the national stage for its commitment to student safety, securing one of only 50 Omnilert Secure Schools Grants awarded across the United States.

The grant will allow Donna ISD to upgrade up to 50 existing security cameras with advanced AI powered technology over the next three years. This system is designed to enhance school safety by quickly detecting potential threats and alerting law enforcement, ensuring faster response times when every second counts. Omnilert Gun Detect uses advanced visual AI to transform traditional security systems into proactive solutions that identify potential threats early, enhancing safety and reducing gun violence. 

Superintendent Dr. Angela Dominguez emphasized the district's proactive approach: "Receiving the Omnilert Secure Schools Grant allows us to build on the strong safety measures already in place across our district. By enhancing our existing security systems with advanced AI technology, we are providing an additional layer of protection for our students and staff."

This new layer of security builds on Donna ISD's established framework, which already includes secured entrances, a dedicated police department, regular emergency drills, and close partnerships with local law enforcement agencies.

The implementation of Omnilert's system further highlights Donna ISD's dedication to ensuring a secure learning environment and supporting families with enhanced safety assurances.
