Inter -Com
PROCLAMATION - PARTNERS IN EDUCATION
Recommendation
The City Council recognize the dedication and commitment
to the youth of this City of the Tustin Police
Department and the Tustin Unified School District by
issuing the attached proclamation.
Background
The Tustin Police Department (TPD) and the Tustin
Unified School District (TUSD) have been working
together diligently for approximately one and one-half
years to address specific problems in this community as
they relate to TUSD. The two areas of concern are drugs
and gangs.
Sergeant Steve Lewis (TPD) and Ms. Nancy Diaz -Miller
(TUSD), together with a strong support group from each
agency, formed a unique partnership that allows for a
high level of communication between TUSD and TPD. This
facilitates the handling of the areas of concern with a
great deal of success. I have seen a high degree of
cooperation between the two agencies.
This cooperation has led to Memorandums of Understanding
between Dr. Maury Ross (Superintendent of Schools) and
I, which enables both agencies to receive monies for
grants to implement specialized programs to provide for
the safety of this community --specifically, the youth.
Others have witnessed this spirit of cooperation.
Recently, the Human Services Conference for the
Department of Education in Orange County recognized this
unique partnership by requesting that Tustin present
its partnership. The TUSD/TPD Team was one of only
three selected from Orange County to give such a
presentation. The presentation was provided for over
600 educators, administrators, doctors, teachers, and
law enforcement personnel during the conference.

With this kind of recognition, our citizenry should be
made aware that the City is being proactive in its
efforts to address the problems that all cities are
experiencing and that the City of Tustin is a leader in
this field.
