The School Resource Officer would be involved in the following programs and committees: School Attendance Review Board (SARB): Both the San Leandro Unified School District and the San Lorenzo Unified School District have committees consisting of school administrators, counseling agencies, local organizations, community members and the School Resource Officer. These committees convene to meet with students and their parents, as well as to address the issues of attendance, truancy behavior and student conduct. The School Resource Officer plays an active roll in addressing these issues and ultimately may present a criminal case to the District Attorney for review and charging. San Leandro/San Lorenzo Allied Youth Agencies (SLAYA): This monthly committee meeting consists of all middle and high school staff members, campus security/supervisors, probation officers, juvenile detectives and School Resource Officers. These meetings provide a forum to exchange information on current criminal and non-criminal trends, to discuss methods of dealing with various issues, to identify persons responsible for criminal behavior on and off campus, and to form a support system for those responsible for maintaining a safe environment at schools.
