Washington County SWAT
School Resource Officer: In January 2001, Kewaskum Police Department established a full-time Police School Liaison Program at the Kewaskum High School and the Kewaskum Middle School. In this program, an Officer is available at the two schools on a daily basis. This is a proactive program allowing the Police Department to have an officer in the schools to deal not only with the problems, but to establish a rapport with the students, staff, and the parents in the school district. The program allows meeting with an Officer on a one-to-one basis in a non-confrontational setting. With the violence that has come about in some schools in recent past, this program has an Officer on scene in the event of a disaster.
