TRAFFIC TUESDAY | Lincoln Public Schools is on Spring Break this week. So while kids are outside playing, #LPD wants to remind drivers to stay extra cautious. Parents, remind kids to always look both ways before crossing the street, use crosswalks when possible and don't run into the road.

This week we are co-hosting with Nebraska Event Management EVENT STAFF TRAINING through NCS4. This is the fourth year in a row we have received free training from NCS4 at Lincoln Public Schools. Thank you to UNL for holding the training at this great venue.

Today, we remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

School’s out for summer! ☀️🚸🎒✨ Here are a few summer safety tips: 👀 Slow down - more kids are outside 🏠 Latch-key kids? Set safety rules 🌐 Talk online safety & screen time 👮‍♀️ Remind kids how to call for help Let’s have a safe summer! ☀️ Lincoln Public Schools

Today was our annual training with our Lincoln Public Schools building administrators and Lincoln Police SROs. Our SROs continue to be an added layer of support between our schools and the community as they build positive relationships with our students and their families.

We spy someone we know. Our department is lucky to have two retired LPD Captains (Director of Security, Joe Wright and Security Coordinator, Jon Sundermeier). Thank you for hosting this annual event.

We want to send a big CONGRATULATIONS to Jon Sundermeier on his retirement from the Lincoln Public Schools Security Department. Jon worked for LPS for 8 years helping to build a nationally recognized Threat Assessment Team here at LPS. He was awarded the Security Award with Distinction.

Congratulations to Matt for this honor. Thank you for everything you, and Darrell, do to support our students at Lincoln Public Schools.
