ATTACHMENT A PROGRAM NARRATIVE Jurisdiction Name: Sunny Isles Beach Contact Person: Capt. Michael A. Grandinetti Address: 18070 Collins Avenue Sunny Isles Beach, Florida 33160 Program Area: School Resource Officer (07 A) Contact Numbers: 0 (305) 792-1857 F (305) 792-1653 Program Dates: 10/01/09 through 09/30/10 Program Name: School Resource Officer Target Population: K-8 School Age Youth Problem Identification Since the incorporation of the City on Sunny Isles Beach in 1997, the City has grown tremendously. Along with this growth came a change in our demographics, transitioning from a predominantly elderly or retiree community to one that now includes a large number of young families. With this transition came a need for a local school. The Sunny Isles Beach Community School is a new K-8 Public School which first opened its doors for the 2008/2009 school year. Realizing the importance of early interaction with school age children, the Sunny Isles Beach Police Department has committed a full time police officer to serve as the School Resource Officer for the sole purpose of providing a safe, drug free learning environment to our youth. Proaram Descriotion The commitment of a full-time police officer to serve as the School Resource Officer at the Sunny Isles Beach Community School will provide a number of benefits to the students, staff, police department and the residences. In addition to providing police protection for the school and students, the presence of the School Resource Officer will also serve as a deterrent to unwanted intruders. The Sunny Isles Beach Police Department is committed to the safety and development of the children of this community. Part of that commitment is to establish and implement various student safety initiatives at the elementary school level. The School Resource Officer(s) responsibilities will be to teach the Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) programs, as well as other safety initiatives, such as bicycle and pedestrian safety programs, which will instruct students in proper safety techniques for bicycle and bike helmet usage, as well as traffic safety for crossing the street in properly designated areas. The D.A.R.E. program is a nationally recognized program whose mission is to provide school aged children with the information and skills to live drug and violent free lives. The D.A.R.E. curriculum for this school year will be taught to all 5th grade students, which will require 72 classroom sessions to complete. Approximately 180 children will participate in this program during the school year of 2009/2010 and our goal will be to successfully graduate all students from the program, who will receive a D.A.R.E. certificate of completion, but only after the student completes the required core curriculum. Additionally, Bicycle / Pedestrian Safety programs will be designed to teach elementary school students the basic rules of the road for bicycle and pedestrian safety which are necessary to staying injury free. With the opening of the new community school, the police department has seen an increase of young children utilizing bicycles as a means of transportation to and from school. Many of these children are in need of proper instruction on bicycle handling and helmet use to insure their safety. Because the Sunny Isles Beach Community School is located within walking distance, many young school children are also walking to school and need instruction in the proper procedures for safely crossing the street. These instructional courses will be done as part of a "Bicycle Rodeo" held at the school. with the permission of the parents and will target the elementary aged students. The course will teach the basic rules of the road. balance and traffic skills while riding. as well as teaching skills to help them survive on the road. For example: . How to cross busy streets without being hit by a car . How to look back without swerving . How to ride straight without hitting potholes Our goal will be to insure that each child who participates can demonstrate proficiency in bicycle handling. learn the importance of a safety helmet use, as well as understand the importance of crossing the street properly, being alert and paying attention to the cross walk signals. In addition to instruction on DARE classes, crime prevention and bicycle safety, officers will also provide counseling to truants during the school year. Truant referrals and their parents will receive counseling when needed. JAG funding will be used to purchase program equipment and supplies necessary to initiate ongoing school policing services in Sunny Isles Beach. Miscellaneous grant funds will include pencils, pad folios. and other program supplies. Jurisdiction Name: Sunny Isles Beach Contact Person: Capt.
