Fire Education <br />The Fire Department provides public education at all elementary schools promoting fire <br />safety and prevention. <br />Every 15 Minutes Program <br />This is facilitated through the Police Department's Traffic Unit, but always has involved <br />School Resource Officers (SROs), Crime Prevention staff and Fire Department <br />personnel due to staffing needs. Held once a year and rotated between high schools. <br />Parent Project <br />This is a community outreach program in partnership with the Pleasanton Unified <br />School District Adult Education program. The Parent Project is a nationally recognized <br />program that offers an interactive class that teaches parents the skills to work with their <br />strong-willed adolescents. The class is offered twice a year for 11 weeks each session <br />Each session is approximately three hours in length and is usually held on Tuesday <br />evenings. <br />Safe Our Schools Grant <br />The School District was awarded $318,000 in matching funds to enhance and upgrade <br />its security on school campuses. The grant was overseen by the Police Department's <br />Youth Community Service Unit (YCSU) Sergeant. The program involved project <br />management, financial and reporting oversight. <br />School Liaison Committee <br />This function is conducted by the YCSU Sergeant in partnership with School District <br />personnel to keep abreast of school issues. <br />S.R.O. Nights (and other community outreach nights targeted for youths) <br />These are public education nights for the parents of high school and middle school <br />students. Our goal is to hold two meetings per year in the evening and include School <br />Resource Officers, the YCSU Sergeant and the Traffic Unit. <br />T.A.P.S. Enforcement <br />Teen Alcohol Party Suppression (T.A.P.S.) patrol is usually conducted by SROs after <br />school dances and/or large scale, Friday night sporting events, i.e., football and <br />basketball games. <br />Fuel Procurement and Storage <br />The City purchases, stores and dispenses vehicle fuel for both the City and School <br />District to use. The School District reimburses the City at a wholesale rate. <br />Parking Lot Lights <br />The City purchases and replaces school parking lot light bulbs on an as-needed basis. <br />Page 5 of 8 <br />
