What educators are saying about GoGuardian?

“School mental health professionals have enormous caseloads, and they can’t possibly monitor every student. GoGuardian Beacon alerts are sent to them as soon the system detects at-risk behavior, so staff can intervene when they are needed most.”

Dave Peterson, IT Coordinator,

Sunnyside School District (WA)

"It’s the reason we can sleep at night."

Jack Bostian, Technology Director,

Almont Community Schools

“As an IT director, 
I don't know how you don't consider Beacon. One student . . . was struggling. We were able to catch the student when they were in a vulnerable position. Had we not caught it the student may have gone down a darker path."

Matt Dadona, Director of IT,

Windsor Public Schools

"The level of alerts for students regarding suicide watch/wording is so helpful."

Sheri Compton

Redding School District

Designed in consultation with mental health experts
