September 2024 Volume 5 Edition 2

For many years, the collaboration between the Placer Union High School District, the Auburn Police Department, and the Placer County Sheriff’s Office has ensured that our students, staff, and campus communities receive up-to-date information about trending drugs and other harmful matters, partnership during emergencies on our campuses, event security, and the presence of School Resource Officers (SROs) on our premises.

The SROs play a crucial role in supporting our Administration during incidents requiring law enforcement intervention. Equally significant is their exceptional work in building connections with our students on our campuses. This year, we welcome two new SROs to the team and aim to recognize all the dedicated individuals working in our high schools. SGT. JASON WELSH 1. How long have you been in law enforcement?
