To protect more than 235 thousand students and 4 thousand 500 employees, the Laredo Independent School District Police, will add three new police officers tomorrow and will also promote two sergeants and two lieutenants from the corporation. With the intention of protecting minors, teachers and other adult personnel in this new 2022-23 school year that begins on Wednesday, August 10, tomorrow these seven elements will be sworn in to their new position and will receive their badges in a special ceremony in the auditorium of the specialty academy or magnet school, Vidal M. Treviño.
More than 45 elements with badges and over 80 security guards, as well as two researchersmake up the LISD surveillance and protection force, all commanded by Doreen Hale, the first woman in the region designated as Chief of School Police. This is how the oldest school district on the Texas border with Mexico is preparing for a new challenge, which will be very special, given the recent tragic events in schools, including here in Texas.
