SRO Activity Report - February 2003

In February, the program again proved the partnership between the school and the community is essential.  During this month, I have been concentrating on scheduling training at the schools for staff and students.  I have recently been teaching classes on Gang Awareness to staff and students.  I have also been to the Alternative school and taught a class on Alcohol awareness.  I am scheduled for another Gang awareness class at Mnt. View school.  

The Quincy Police Department has been contacted by four separate seniors who are doing their senior projects for the Police Department.  The projects include Pedestrian safety at Pioneer School, Quincy Police Department Web site, Advertisement for Police Tip Line, and Graffiti removal.  

Enforcement has also been a major part of the SRO time spent this month.  The gang activity has continued however, most of the assaults this month has been happening just after school is getting out.  Due to the continued problem with gang activity, the SRO has teamed up with Mr. Bazaldua at Monument and will be teaching a gang awareness class to all of the 5^th grade and 6^th grade students this next month.
