School & Preschool Security Assessments in Florida
Florida Security Assessments provides on-site security and CPTED assessments for preschools, daycares, and early learning centers, as well as elementary, middle, and high schools across Florida. We help administrators, owners, and boards see their campus the way a trained assessor does, and give them clear options to make it safer.
Preschools & Early Learning Centers: Protecting Those Who Cannot Protect Themselves
Infants, toddlers, and preschoolers cannot recognize danger, call for help, or get themselves to safety. They depend entirely on the adults around them and on how the building is designed and run. That makes a professional security assessment a must for every preschool, daycare, VPK program, and early learning center.
We look at your center the way a child’s safety depends on it: who can get in, who can leave with a child, how quickly staff can secure a room, and how you would move infants and toddlers who cannot walk or follow instructions in an emergency.
What We Review at Preschools
• Front entry, buzz-in and visitor management
• Drop-off and pick-up procedures, including authorized-adult release
• Playground fencing, gates, and sightlines from the building
• Classroom door hardware and lockdown capability
• Hiding spaces and safe areas sized for small children
• Evacuation and reunification plans for infants and non-walking children (cribs, strollers, staff ratios)
• Lighting, landscaping, and parking-lot visibility
• Staff training and emergency drills
Elementary, Middle & High Schools
Upper-grade campuses bring different challenges: larger buildings, more entrances, more visitors, after-hours events, and students who need to know what to do on their own. We assess public, private, charter, and faith-based schools and provide practical options that fit each campus and budget.
Our assessments are designed to complement, not replace, any school safety reviews required by your district or the state.
School safety is also what Ron teaches. As an instructor for the Florida Crime Prevention Training Institute (Office of the Attorney General), he trains Florida law enforcement officers in Crime Prevention for Schools: Preschool through College, so the same standards he teaches officers are applied on your campus.
What We Review at K–12 Campuses
• Perimeter fencing, gates, and a single point of controlled entry
• Access control, door hardware, and visitor screening
• CPTED: natural surveillance, territorial reinforcement, and maintenance
• Lighting surveys with a NIST-traceable calibrated light meter
• Bus loops, car lines, parking, and pedestrian routes
• Athletic fields, gyms, and after-hours events
• Emergency plans, lockdown, and reunification procedures
• Active shooter preparedness, drawing on FBI ASAPP, ALERRT CRASE, and ALICE training
Our Process & What You Receive
Every school assessment is conducted personally by Ron Vosatka, MS, MBA, FCP, a Florida CPTED Practitioner and instructor of Crime Prevention for Schools for the Florida Crime Prevention Training Institute, using FSA-SAM™, our documented Security Assessment Methodology.
You receive a written report with photographs, our observations, and clear, prioritized options, from low-cost changes your staff can make right away to longer-term improvements. We can also provide on-site training for teachers, staff, and volunteers.
