The work of the School Resource Officers is supplemented by the GRAMPA cops, who work in the public and private elementary schools. The GRAMPA Cop Program (Getting Retirees Actively Motivated to Policing Again) has been very successful and gained national recognition.
GRAMPA cops are retired law enforcement officers who educate children about safety and drug prevention. The program successfully utilizes the extensive experience of older residents while bringing officers together with children at an early age.
