National Police Week Honors the Men and Women Who Protect and Serve

Disponible en:

National Police Week was established by a joint resolution of Congress in 1962. The observation, May 15-21, 2022, pays special recognition to law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of others.

The National Law Enforcement Memorial in Washington, D.C., contains the names of more than 21,000 officers. They were killed in the line of duty throughout U.S. history, dating back to the first known death in 1791. Each spring, new names of fallen officers are added to the monument in conjunction with National Police Week.

Chief Paul Córdova is proud of the individuals that comprise the Aldine ISD Police Department. The department operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, with the help of sworn personnel and civilian employees. It’s worth noting that a number of the officers are Aldine ISD alumni.

Law enforcement services include patrol, criminal investigations, school resource officers, K-9 officers, communications division, and an alarm technician.

Aldine ISD Police Officers protect the staff and faculty who work hard every day to deliver high-quality educational experiences, choices, and opportunities. Chief Córdova added that officers have the authority to lead and mentor. Yet, they know that authority does not confer privilege or power. It imposes a responsibility to use the authority they have been given for the good of the organization and the people they serve.

The district invites the community to #ThankAldineISDPD. Share your shout-outs on social media for everyone to follow.
