✨SRO Spotlight✨

When SRO Deputy Kotchian started in a middle school last year, she recognized a need and she came up with a solution. She noticed that some children had limited clothing options and it was affecting their confidence and school performance. With support from her school staff, Deputy Kotchian set up a closet in her office of donated items where kids can come and get clothes and shoes they may need. Just another example of our SROs going above and beyond for their students! Way to go, Deputy Kotchian!👖👟 👚
