Junior Police Officer Safety Vests

Help me give my students new safety vests and whistles for their Junior Police Officer Program.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Contreras's classroom raised $213

This project is fully funded

My Project

The students in our school's Junior Police Officer program, also known as JPO, are in desperate need of new safety vests and whistles. The ones we have now are falling apart, fading, and don't look professional any more. With new vests and whistles our students will be able to be properly seen and heard while doing their safety jobs around campus.

Our JPOs have some very important jobs to do around campus such as:

1) Setting up and taking down the flag everyday.

2) Helping with school crossing before and after school.

3) Monitor students during drop off and pick up.

4) Help set up playground equipment.

These new vests and whistles will help them be seen and heard while doing their jobs. Help them feel more confident while doing their jobs in brand new vests and whistles. It will also help to keep them safe while going to different parts of are campus, especially the crosswalk. Your support would mean so much to these hard working JPOs!
