Imagine walking through the halls of a school where every screen tells a story—students are celebrated for their achievements, after-school activities are displayed front and center, and vital safety alerts are ready to appear in seconds. This isn’t a distant dream; it’s the reality for schools embracing digital signage as more than just a tool—it’s their voice.
In the latest episode of the Avocor Podcast, we sat down with Jennifer Jennings, Growth Marketing Manager at Rise Vision, to uncover how schools are transforming their environments with the power of communication. Jennifer’s passion for helping educators sparked a conversation that left Jeff inspired and eager to share. Here’s the story—and what we can all learn from it.
Jennifer shared a story about a South Carolina school that had displays mounted on walls across its campus. They weren’t being used. They were just there, collecting dust—silent, forgotten. That is, until one champion stepped in.
Tim, an instructional technology leader at the school, attended one of our webinars last year. He left with a mission: to turn those blank displays into vibrant communication hubs. With a combination of Avocor’s R Series displays and Rise Vision’s media players, Tim brought his vision to life.
Today, those once-dormant displays now connect parents, students, and staff across multiple campuses. They share updates, celebrate wins, and make sure everyone feels informed and included.
Digital signage isn’t just for posting lunch menus or the occasional reminder. Jennifer opened our eyes to the creative ways schools are using this technology:
Jennifer mentioned a Wisconsin school that reduced its lockdown response time by 50%. That’s the kind of stat that stops you in your tracks. Technology isn’t just improving communication—it’s making schools safer, faster.
When we asked Jennifer about the future of digital signage, she painted a picture of endless possibilities. Imagine displays that pull real-time data to update sales numbers in a corporate office. Or displays that automatically adjust their messages based on the weather. As AI continues to evolve, the opportunities for personalization and engagement are limitless.
But Jennifer made one thing clear: In education, the heart of digital signage lies in empowering students and educators—not in overwhelming them with tech for tech’s sake.
Jennifer left us with a thought we can’t shake: Every display is an opportunity to inspire. A student sees their art featured on a display, and suddenly they dream of becoming a designer. A school celebrates its championship win, and the entire community feels the pride. A simple message flashes during an emergency, and lives are saved.
