IdentAKid
The purpose of
IdentAKid is to reasonably identify visitors to our schools so that they can be
screened for sex offender status and be signed-in with a badge as a
visitor to our schools. This is done for the protection of the children
in our schools, as well as for accountability purposes.
IdentAKid is an easy to use system
that consists of a kiosk with a touch screen, camera, and ID scanner. A
photo ID will be required to sign-in with Lobby Guard. The integrated
driver’s license scanner is located directly below the touch screen and
supports the scanning of driver’s licenses from all 50 states and
numerous foreign countries, US state-issued IDs, and US military IDs. If
a photo ID is not available, then the visitor must present two separate
forms of ID before they can register as a visitor. Acceptable forms
would be: car registration, utility bill, voter registration card, birth
certificate, Passport, library card, or any other form of
identification that is reviewed and accepted by the building
administrator.
Once the ID has been scanned and
cleared, a photo visitor badge will be issued to the visitor. This is
generally a stick-on type badge that must be worn and visible while in
the school.
Checking out if easy too! A visitor
simply scans the bar code located on their visitor badge under the light
on the kiosk and the visitor will automatically be signed out of the
school.
IdentAKid is a quick and
easy way to issue visitor identification badges, screen for sex
offenders, and help keep our schools safe and secure.
*Schools may use alternative methods for signing in visitors for special events and functions.
