| WHAT IS THE PRO PROGRAM?

The officers maintain an office in the school, are in the school 40 hours per week, attend extra-curricular activities, facilitate classes on non-traditional educational topics; such as juvenile law, domestic violence, underage drinking, drug and alcohol prevention, and child abuse and neglect. They work on safety issues, prevention and learning more about youth and interaction with them. |
