Child Abuse Prevention Month
Proclamation
Whereas, children are vital to our state’s future success, prosperity, and quality
of life, as well as being our most vulnerable assets;
Whereas, all children deserve to have the safe, stable, nurturing homes and
communities they need to foster their healthy growth and development;
Whereas, child abuse and neglect is a community responsibility affecting both the current and future quality of life of our community;
Whereas, communities that provide parents with good social supports, knowledge of parenting and child development, and concrete resources that families may need to cope with stress, will help ensure that all children grow to their full potential;
Whereas, effective child abuse prevention strategies succeed because of partnerships created among citizens, human service agencies, schools, faith communities, health care providers, civic organizations, law enforcement agencies, and the business community;
Therefore, I Rod Koch, Mayor do hereby proclaim April as Child Abuse Prevention Month in of South Sioux City and call upon all citizens, community agencies, faith groups, medical facilities, elected leaders, and businesses to increase their participation in our efforts to support families, thereby preventing child abuse and strengthening the communities in which we live.

School Resource Officer MOU
SCHOOL RESOURCE OFFICER
MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
Between the South Sioux City, Nebraska Police Department
and South Sioux City Community Schools
Purpose
The purpose of this Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) is to set forth guidelines to ensure
that the South Sioux City, Nebraska Police Department (“PD”) and the South Sioux City
Community Schools (the “District”) have a shared understanding of the School Resource Officer
(“SRO”) program and the parties’ roles in maintaining safe schools, improving school climate,
and supporting educational opportunities for all students.
Mission, Goal, and Objectives
Schools in the District are meant to be places where students can learn from their mistakes in
order to grow into healthy, productive adults.
The parties recognize and support the need for safe schools and a safe learning environment for
our youth. In furtherance of that goal, PD shall provide an SRO as provided in this MOU. The
SRO will be covered by the PD Union contract. The SRO shall work in partnership with school
officials.
Except as specifically noted, this MOU does not limit the ability, authority or operations of the
PD or District. This MOU does not alter any party’s existing duties under local, state, or federal
laws.
Goals and objectives are designed to develop and enhance rapport between youth, police
officers, school administrators and parents. Goals and objectives include:
Friendly contact between PD and the youth in the City of South Sioux City.
Assistance and information sharing concerning problems and issues affecting the District
and its school employees and students.
Education of children regarding the role of laws, courts, and law enforcement officers in
society.
Investigation of cases involving juveniles and use of effective alternatives to court
whenever possible.

Prevention of crime or delinquent behavior by juveniles within the SRO’s areas of
assignment.
Effective problem solving and liaison with neighborhoods surrounding the schools.
Roles and Responsibilities
PD
PD’s role within the school environment is to help foster a positive school climate by
demonstrating respect for the rights of District school employees and students and
protecting the safety of the school environment.
The PD will provide the SRO any required police equipment, including but not limited to
radios and motorized vehicles to the SRO.
District
It is the role of teachers and other educators to administer school discipline in a way that
supports personal growth and learning opportunities for all of the District’s students. It is
further the goal of the District and PD that school discipline be administered in such a
way as to keep students within the classroom setting to the greatest extent practicable.
The District will provide a private office, office furnishings, telephone, and a computer to
the SRO for SRO use in each school building the District places the SRO (“Schools”).
SRO
The SRO is not a school teacher, school administrator, or school counselor. The SRO
may assist teachers with classroom presentations on relative topics when requested and
able. The SRO may be used in a guest speaker capacity and may assist the District in
working with families, individual students and other school employees with counseling
and guidance efforts when requested and appropriate.
The SRO is encouraged to work extracurricular activities as requested by the school
administrator. It is recognized by all parties that these assignments provide further
opportunities for crime prevention and crime detection as well as providing the
opportunity to interact with the students in a more casual manner. All after-hours work,
including any work by the SRO at extracurricular activities, shall be approved by the
CITY OF SOUTH SIOUX CITY
COUNCIL AGENDA

31
SRO’s assigned PD Supervisor in advance and will be consistent with the PD Union
Contract, if applicable.
The parties recognize that the SRO has the authority to investigate criminal cases
involving youth and is expected to maintain order through the enforcement of local, state,
and federal laws. SRO may be involved in school discipline, when it pertains to
preventing a disruption that would, if ignored, place students, faculty and school
employees at risk of harm.
The parties recognize that the SRO is expected to attend all training, meetings and
appointments assigned by the PD. Some of these will conflict with SRO availability
during normal school hours. These conflicts will be minimized as much as possible but
the potential exists that such requirements will take precedence over school presence.
The SRO shall strive to keep the school principal or District designee informed about
his/her absences and/or activities as appropriate on a need to know basis.
The SRO will conduct himself/herself in such a manner that the SRO could be considered
a role model or mentor for students.
Involvement of PD in a School-Based Incident
Wherever possible, school-based incidents shall be addressed through the use of non-punitive
interventions that improve school safety and academic performance (e.g., restorative justice, peer
mediation, counseling services, etc.), and not through harsh, exclusionary measures or justice
system intervention.
1. “Involvement” in a school-based incident by PD/SRO includes any action beyond
data collection and may include:
opening of a case file
conducting an investigation
being called to, or arriving at, a school campus
questioning and/or searching of any students or school personnel; as long as it
adheres to current State of Nebraska Statutes
issuance of tickets/citations
conducting arrests and/or making referrals to the juvenile justice system.

2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SRO primary involvement in a school-based incident
should be limited to incidents of felony or misdemeanor conduct posing a threat of injury to any
individual within the school community. The SRO may be involved in any matter, if requested,
that involves violation of State or federal Law.
3. The purpose of SRO involvement in school-based incidents is to assist the District in
maintaining safe schools and to provide a law enforcement resource should an incidents take
place within any of the District’s schools. It is not the SRO’s role to enforce school discipline or
to punish students. The SRO is not to be used as a tool of intimidation. The SRO may educate
students about the legal consequences of the students’ behavior.
4. Examples of school-based infractions that shall be handled by school officials without
SRO involvement include (but are not limited to): disorderly conduct, disruptive or disrespectful
behaviors, tardiness, verbal arguing, minor property damage, consensual sexual activity ( age
appropriate), etc. SRO may be involved in school-based infractions as a support member to the
school employees.
5. Examples of behavior that may warrant SRO or PD involvement include (but are not
limited to): possessing or using weapons, selling drugs or alcohol, physical assaults involving
injuries or weapons, and sexual assaults, statutory offensives, child abuse cases and/or
allegations, and disturbing the peace.
6. SRO or PD involvement in school absenteeism shall consist of assisting the school
with student/parent home visits. PD may, upon request of District, conduct an investigation into
Nebraska State Statute violations that pertains to student absenteeism (i.e. truancy or contributing
to the delinquency of a minor). If requested, the SRO may do a home visit in order to locate and
determine why a student is not in school. SRO will assist District in the location of parents in
order to have the child taken to school or picked up from school. SRO is not responsible for
picking students up for school or driving students’ home after school.
Procedure for SRO Involvement in a School-Based Infraction
Unless in an emergency situation, the decision to involve the SRO in any school-based
incident should be made by a Principal, Assistant Principal, Dean of Students or other
District designee.
Any member of the school community may notify the PD, the SRO, principal or District
designee of student conduct believed to poses a serious and immediate threat of injury to
an individual within the school community.

It is recommended that the principal or District designee attempt to de-escalate the
situation wherever possible prior to calling or otherwise involving the SRO in the school-
based infraction. However, if the principal or District designee feels that the SRO’s
presence is needed, based on past experience with a student, the principal or District
designee may contact the SRO for assistance prior to attempting to de-escalating a
situation.
Procedures Concerning PD / SRO Conduct in Schools
Absent an emergency situation, a school principal or District designee shall be consulted
prior to the arrest or detention of a student.
When the SRO or PD has taken a student into custody, the SRO or PD shall notify a
school principal or District designee, who will notify the student’s parent or guardian.
The PD shall take immediate steps to notify the parent, guardian, or responsible relative
of the minor that the minor is in custody and the place where he or she is being held
When a student has been taken into custody as a victim of suspected child abuse, the
principal shall provide the PD with the address and telephone number of the student’s
parent or guardian. If the PD has a reasonable belief that the minor would be endangered
by a disclosure of the place where the minor is being held or that the disclosure would
cause the custody of the minor to be disturbed, the PD may refuse to disclose the place
where the minor is being held for a period not to exceed twenty-four hours. The PD shall,
however, inform the parent, guardian, or responsible relative whether the child requires
and is receiving medical or other treatment.
PD may conduct a search of a student’s person or possessions, only where there is
probable cause to believe the student committed or is committing a felony/misdemeanor
offense and the offense at issue poses the threat of injury to an individual within the
school community and/or the security of the School or District. The SRO may conduct a
search of student upon arrest. The SRO and PD must follow local, state, and federal law
when conducting a search of any person, person’s possession or property. PD is not to
perform a search of a person or possessions for a school policy violation that is not also a
criminal violation.
Absent an emergency situation, a principal or District designee should be consulted
before PD conducts a search on a student’s person, possessions, or locker.
PD shall not request that school officials conduct a search of a student’s person,
possessions, or locker in order to evade the probable cause standard.

SRO interviews of students that may result in criminal consequences shall be reserved for
criminal activity. Advance notice of such questioning should be given to a principal or
District designee and should be conducted in the presence of a parent or guardian and/or
with a parent or guardian’s consent.
Strip searches of students by PD or the SRO are prohibited.
Prior to, or at the time of arrival at a school campus, the SRO should be notified by the
principal or designee of any students involved in a criminal matter or who possess
disabilities and who therefore may require special treatment or accommodations by PD or
the SRO.
Physical Restraint
Physical restraints may be used when it is believed that less intrusive measures of
restraint have failed or when the SRO believes that the lesser restraints may result in the
serious or immediate injury to a student, school employee, self or the community.
Physical restraints (handcuffs, Tasers, Mace, pepper spray, or other physical and
chemical restraints) shall be used for conduct that poses a threat to an individual within
the school community and /or the security of the school.
Transparency, Accountability, and Training
Any school employee who fails to follow the protocol established above, resulting in the
unnecessary involvement of the SRO or PD, may be subject to corrective action. This
corrective action will be conducted by school administration. The SRO will not have any
involvement in school employee discipline.
The District, PD and the SRO may maintain records (including PD Incident or Event
numbers) of school-based incident resulting in PD / SRO involvement disaggregated by
description of the incident, names of school officials involved, manner in which PD was
notified, searches/questioning of students, tickets, citations, or summonses issued, arrests
made, filing of delinquency petitions, referrals to a probation officer, and other referrals
to the juvenile justice system. PD involvement is defined as an arrest or citation issued
by PD.
Each record described above may also include information on any suspension, expulsion,
disciplinary transfer, or other disciplinary consequence imposed on the student. School

records may reflect school discipline. PD record shall consist of an Incident Report and /

PD and the SRO shall be trained on their role within the District’s schools and on the
rights afforded to students. Further, they shall be trained on topics including, but not

school climate. Such trainings shall continue on an annual basis. This training may be
formal or informal. Expenses for training will be agreed on by the District and PD on a
case by case scenario.
Complaint System
PD shall create a user-friendly system for students, parents, school employees, or other
individuals to lodge complaints against the SRO. Such complaints must be given in
written form and include a brief description of why the complaint is being issued.
The complaint system must provide for independent investigation of any and all
allegations as well as swift and comprehensive redress.
Parents must be able to lodge complaints in their native language.
