William Henry Harrison High School

William Henry Harrison High School has over 2,000 students in grades 9-12. The public address and bell system at the school was over 15 years old and unreliable. On any given day the system worked intermittently, causing challenges that affect both internal communication and security. Numerous areas in the high school, including the cafeteria, gym, and pool did not have direct, immediate access to the main office which presents a security concern.

The school turned to Open Control Systems to implement a Telecor solution. Telecor’s system provides centralized control for a broad range of functions including intercom, paging, program distribution, built-in master clock, secondary clock correction and time tone signaling for class changes, just to name a few.

Both Telecor and Open Control Systems worked diligently with the High School to install the new solution and ensure full user training and system adjustments were completed.

The new Telecor bell, public address system and call switches are used regularly each day and provide the high school with the reliability, security and functionality missing with the old system. Internal communication is enhanced and classroom/instructional area to main office exchanges are now a breeze.
