    How do you start a school police department.

    I am a full time police officer in progreso texas, i have just started to work part time at a vocational school doing security. The director of education has asked me to find information on how to start a school police department. Can anyone point me in the right direction.

    tell him/her it's going to take about 3 million bucks to get it off the ground; then after that you can start looking for applicants...

    I'd contact some school district LE agencies directly and ask someone there. A few in the state I can think of off the top of my head are in major cities such as Dallas, San Antonio, Houston, Conroe just to name a few. Start with some of these school districts and contact someone there for the advice you seek.

    You start by having the school board poass a resolution to have a department. Then you can take the resolution to TCLEOSE and get your agency established and an agency number. It is not a cheap process and lots of work up front needs to go into it. Thinks like Board Policies, Department policies, establish budgets etc.
