Piatt County Sheriff's Office, Piatt County School Districts Partnering for Communication Program Regarding Incidents Involving Students

The WHOW Morning Show's annual Hometown Tour stopped in Piatt County Monday morning to visit with leaders in Bement and Cerro Gordo.

 

Piatt County Sheriff Dave Hunt and Bement Schools Superintendent Dr. Sheila Greenwood discussed a new program they began this month. According to Sheriff Hunt, the Handle With Care program aims to give a heads up to school leaders about traumatic events that may have taken place with Piatt County students when they are away from the school setting.

 

 

Dr. Greenwood says this was something she recently heard about at a special meeting. She feels this program is a quote - "no brainer".

 

 

Hunt and Dr. Greenwood point out they will rely on the school resource officer to likely facilitate the execution of the program through the Piatt County Sheriff's Office.
