No two school days are ever exactly alike. From class schedule changes, office days, and assemblies to unforeseen alterations or cancellations, school leaders must be ready to change plans on a dime. Being prepared means having a strong school bell system or network bell controller to alert students to changing periods. Working alongside a Primex Sync™ Synchronized Time solution, Primex Notify Bell Controllers easily integrate into existing public address systems to trigger standard or custom ring patterns based on your school’s specific needs.
Of course, when schedules change or classes end, students need to be informed. Supplement the Primex Notify programmable Bell Controllers with Primex Notify InfoBoard™ Displays, which can operate as countdown timers in between class periods. When posted in hallways, the easy-to-see digital display boards let students know just how much time they have before their next class starts. These bright LED boards can also convey critical notifications at the press of a button or customized messages, further informing students of all happenings.
Together, Primex Notify Bell Controllers and InfoBoard Displays as countdown timers can take your school's schedule planning and timeliness to the next level.

"One night, a colleague went into the [OneVue] software, changed the colors of the date and time, and added ‘Have a Great Day Wildcats!’ We wanted to see how long it would take for anyone to notice. It caused quite the stir the very next morning."
