District is asking for $41,909 from Part B for year one and $66,389 from Part B for year two. We believe that after completing several rounds of planning for school safety and
security, which led to investments into time for training staff and students, numerous facility improvements, and active shooter drills in conjunction with State and Local law
enforcement, the District is ready to employ a full-time school police officer. The District envisions the school police officer playing multiple roles including: a) working
collaboratively with the school safety coordinator to evaluate school plans, facilities and procedures, b) training students and staff in A.L.I.C.E and other safety/security

to ensure the district maintains a high level of awareness about school safety and security, andH) serving as a member of the school district executive leadership council. In
summary, the District possesses a larger vision of the potential role of a school police officer. We believe a school police officer will not only resolve and/or deter criminal
behavior, but believe the school police officer can play a larger more proactive role in helping students grow socially, emotionally and academically. Additionally, we believe a
school police officer who serves also as a district leader will ensure safety and security receives the appropriate amount of attention and resources.
