Agenda Item Summary:
|
The current Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Alexandria Police Department (APD) is set to expire at the end of October 2022. The current MOU is being reviewed by the School Law Enforcement Partnership (SLEP) advisory group. The SLEP advisory group may recommend changes to the MOU as part of their overall recommendations to the School Board in December 2022/January 2023. To this end, we are recommending extending the current MOU with APD through the end of June 2023. This extension will allow time to account for any potential recommendations that may come from the SLEP advisory group process as well as completion of the public comment process related to the review of the MOU.
|
|
Background:
|
A MOU with the local law enforcement agency (APD) is required for divisions that have School Resource Officers (SROs) (per the Code of Virginia, 22.1-280.2:3). An extension to the current agreement will be needed to remain in compliance with this state requirement.
|
|
Recommendation:
|
The Interim Superintendent recommends that the School Board review the board brief and consider extending the APD/ACPS MOU regarding SROs through June 30, 2023.
