Revolutionizing Early Education: Children's Lighthouse Launches Innovative Digital Parent Boards and Advanced Safety Monitoring Systems
November 07, 2024 // Franchising.com // FORT WORTH, TX – Children’s Lighthouse Early Learning Schools® recently announced the launch of its new Digital Parent Boards and advanced safety monitoring systems in select schools across the country.
Children’s Lighthouse is implementing Digital Parent Boards to streamline communication with parents and provide families with easier access to important school information. The boards, now in 30% of Children’s Lighthouse schools, highlight daily classroom schedules, the current curriculum, upcoming events, and teacher biographies, ensuring up-to-date announcements with full transparency. Important messages are delivered efficiently through a proprietary system collaboratively developed in-house by Children’s Lighthouse’ seasoned home office leadership. The proprietary cloud-based management solution allows for seamless updates and consistent messaging to maintain strong brand standards.
“The Digital Parent Boards open a new window to help streamline communication between parents and teachers,” said Colin Berry, Vice President of Brand Development at Children’s Lighthouse. “This innovation allows Children’s Lighthouse to provide real-time updates and valuable insights into children’s daily activities and progress, fostering a stronger connection and partnership between our educators and families. It’s a significant step forward in our commitment to enhancing the early learning experience and ensuring that parents feel engaged and informed every step of the way.”
As Children’s Lighthouse the safety and well-being of all children is of utmost importance. In addition to the Digital Parent Boards, the schools have implemented comprehensive security systems in partnership with PB & J TV, a camera system and streaming app. This solution provides a full suite of safety features, including identification, verification, notification and dispatch capabilities during any potential safety threat.
The system’s threat detection AI technology analyzes live video streams using advanced algorithms to detect objects resembling firearms, as well as monitor when a child goes out of bounds during recess or when there is an inadequate caretaker-to-child ratio on the playground. In the event of a potential threat, the software immediately sends an alert to certified monitors for rapid verification and response. These advanced security measures, combined with interactive learning tools like tablets and digital whiteboards, support a dynamic and engaging curriculum for children of all ages, ensuring both a safe and enriching educational environment.
“At PB&J TV, our focus is on creating a safer, more connected environment in early education,” said Bobby Franzo, CEO and co-founder of PB&J TV. “Our streaming technology is about fostering trust between parents and schools while adding an extra layer of security. By using advanced AI capabilities, we help detect potential safety risks in real time, allowing for swift, informed responses when needed. For both families and school staff, this technology delivers peace of mind, knowing there’s a robust system in place to keep children safe and engaged throughout the day.”
The mission of Childrens Lighthouse Franchise Company, the franchisor of Children’s Lighthouse, is to give franchisees the tools, guidance and opportunity to operate a business designed to give children a safe, loving place to learn, make friends, and build confidence. Children’s Lighthouse does this by partnering with parents to develop children through three age-appropriate curriculums designed with the specific needs of children in mind.
