New drone technology could help make schools safer
March 24, 2025
Campus Guardian Angel's co-founders say that these high-tech drones can slow down or even stop an active shooter by cutting through windows, deploying flash bangs or pepper launchers, or even hitting the shooter with the drone to injure them.
“This is the only way to take less lethal effects and go up against someone with a lethal weapon. You can't do that with a human.”
– Campus Guardian Angel co-founder and Chief Tactical Officer Bill King, 32-year Navy SEAL veteran
"Our goal is to respond in five seconds, to be on the shooter in 15 seconds, and to degrade or incapacitate in 60 seconds."
– Campus Guardian Angel CEO and co-founder Justin Marston
"If that drone can say, hey, he's in the second floor, third room on the left, then not only decreases my response time to stop casualties, but it also gives us a better opportunity to treat those that have already been wounded in that attack."
– Rick Goodrich, Chief of Safety and Security, Boerne ISD
"Being in a school district that was very close to Uvalde…that worry is very prevalent in my mind. And so having technology like this come in and be that extra layer of security that we can have for students, it puts me at peace of mind."
– Boerne High School senior Teagan Maquet
