TPS has always been able to call TPD to take care of the problems you are talking about. One thing I am afraid of is, TPS will be in more control of the information about problems at TPS . We will not have the same access as we do when TPD responds.<BR/>This type of control can be scary......Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11060844.post-3538820755530192092007-06-22T09:51:00.000-07:002007-06-22T09:51:00.000-07:00Jenks Schools has a police force.

I consider this a positive development.<BR/><BR/>In TPS, if a kid behaves badly--I mean gets in a fight, cusses out a couple of teachers and the principal, resists physically, and damages some property, that kid is suspended for one thing. ONE THING. further, if they are suspended and cause trouble on the way out, it's no harm, no foul right now.<BR/><BR/>If a sworn officer were in the schools, they could cite the kid for each and every bad thing they did that reached the misdemeanor threshold. And instead of some parent threatening to complain to the head office (the "ESC Bomb", which works more than it should, because no principal wants to have to explain stuff to his boss) the parent is explaining to a JUDGE, and burning through money on all sorts of court fees. <BR/><BR/>If they have the guts to do it, this could be a great solution to poor behavior in TPS.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
