MPUSD parent Rosalyn Green Charles expressed her disagreement of having School Resource Officers on campus and expressed she and other community members were under the impression that School Resource Officers were no longer going to be on school campuses. Ms. Green Charles shared preliminary data that shows Monterey Peninsula Unified School District shows the highest number of referrals to law enforcement of all districts in the County. Ms. Green Charles added that even though the suspension rates have gone down, the arrest rates and referrals to law enforcement has increased and probation referrals are initiated at the District.

Helen Rucker shared her personal experience growing up fearing police but does not allow those personal experiences to get in the way of seeing the work the police do. Mrs. Rucker expressed she

is pleased with Chief Pridgeon and Commander Borges. Commander Borges has done a great job in

getting the young people at the Del Monte Center a decent playground. Commander Borges also met with Mrs. Rucker and shared the types of training at the Seaside Police Department. Mrs. Rucker would like to work with the Seaside Police Department to change the Police culture and

reflect the values of the community. Mrs. Rucker shared her life passion is for everyone to treat all children fairly in the school district. Mrs. Rucker requested the District make sure that School Resource Officers are not doing the work of the District staff that is hired and paid to do.
