L.E.A.D. (Law Enforcement Against Drugs)
The goal of the L.E.A.D. program is to provide the leadership, resources and management to ensure law enforcement agencies have the means to partner with our educators, community leaders, and families by providing proven and effective programs to deter youth and adults from drug use, drug related crimes, bullying and violence. L.E.A.D. is committed to reinforcing the mutual respect, goodwill and relations between law enforcement and their communities. The vision of L.E.A.D. is to create safer, healthier communities free of drugs, bullying, and violence. Currently, L.E.A.D. is taught by three of our officers. Sgt. McKay teaches 8th grade, Sgt. Cornine teaches 5th grade and Ptl. Ferris teaches 2nd grade. Each grade level has a specific curriculum that is taught to them and caters to their age level.
Speeding endangers everyone on the road. Each year, thousands of people are killed due to excessive speed.
We all know the frustrations of modern life and juggling a busy schedule, but speed limits are put in place to protect all road users. Learn about the dangers of speeding and why faster doesn’t mean safer.
