GWINN, MI-- Gwinn Area Community Schools have a new type of panic button to push in case of emergencies.
RAVE is a cell phone app that allows staff members to connect immediately with 911 in the event of active shooters, fires, medical emergencies, and other situations.
The service gives emergency personnel and staff members greater detail about the location and type of emergency. Officials say the more detailed communication allows for a more immediate reaction internally.
Marquette County Central Dispatch has been working with Gwinn schools, which is the first district in the area to implement the application.
