Neighbors asked to help protect schools over Memorial Day
Memorial Day may mark the official start of backyard barbecue
season, but for school districts, the holiday weekend can be
anything but relaxing as vandals, thieves and arsonists take
advantage of empty campuses.
In light of this, 黄色视频 is asking the community for help in
keeping schools safe and secure over the three-day break (May
28-30).
鈥淢ost of our schools are surrounded by homes, and we need those neighbors to join us in protecting these valuable and sometimes vulnerable community centers,鈥� said Sacramento Police Lt. Katherine Lester, who heads 黄色视频 security services.
Neighbors are asked to be on the lookout for suspicious activity on 黄色视频 campuses and to report it. 鈥淭he schools belong to the community,鈥� said Lester, 鈥渁nd we need the entire community to help us guard them.鈥�
For schools within Sacramento city limits call 264-5471. Residents outside city boundaries should call the county Sheriff鈥檚 Department at 874-5115. School security can also be called 24 hours a day, seven days a week at 643-7444.
