Miami -Dade County Public Schools is the fourth largest school district in the country. The Schools
located in the City of Miami are is the largest amoung other municipalities in the County. These
Schools have high annual rates for truancy among -youth ages-17- andyounger.--Only-two-schools
in the City achieved a 97% attendance rate. None of the schools achieved 98% or higher in
attendance. Students are faced with multiple environmental factors that increase their risk of
delinquent behavior and academic underachievement, including the following:
1. The City of Miami has consistently been ranked among the poorest of the nation's large
metropolitan areas. 28% of Miami's families live in poverty.
2. In 2013, 789 juveniles were arrested.
3. 18% of households are headed by females.
4. Almost a quarter of Miami -Dade public school students have limited English proficiency and
more than one in ten have special education needs.
5. 19% of the population has attained Tess than a ninth grade education.
6. Almost one in five high school students miss 21 or more days of school, which is 18%
compared to 16% of all high school students in the state.
7. Fighting affects one third of students, and student perception of gang activity in public high
schools has become more favorable.
The primary concern of Miami's School Resource Officers is truancy. During the regular school
year, approximately 10 youth are picked up for skipping school in each of the three MPD Districts
on a daily basis. However, the grant funds will help pay for the targeted sweeps that will be carried
out. The sweeps typically gathers 20 to 30 youths during school hours.
Truancy is one of the City's greatest concerns, involving youth who attend public middle and high
schools. Contributing factors include lack of academic achievement, perceived limited job
opportunities for the future, and low self-esteem. In addition, youth also demonstrate risk factors
that include family history of problem behavior and family conflict, academic failure beginning in
elementary school, lack of commitment to school, rebelliousness, friends who engage in problem
behavior and favorable attitudes toward problem behavior.

Project Summary (Scope of Work)
In the upcoming grant year FY 15, the grant funding will support the City of Miami School
Resource Officer Detail to conduct truancy sweeps in targeted areas throughout the three MPD
Districts. This would bring about a more intense group effort by involving not only the current two
School Resource Officers, but also our other Community Affairs officers.
In addition, the grant funding will help in the prevention and education classes provided by MDP
School Resource Officers in all targeted schools, all truants will be required to participate in one of
the two Team Building, Communication and Problem Solving Events which will take place during
the grant funding period. These activities will provide enhanced lessons on trust, self-esteem,
problem solving, and team building, which will include role-play, motivational speakers, and
videos. SROs will also conduct prevention sessions with parents for the length of the grant
funding.
The grant funding will help SROs Assessments by conducting and determining the need for
services for the youth and their families. Youth are frequently referred to alternative activities such
as the Police Athletic League.
The Grant funding will provide overtime for the SROs activities such as youth safety and
awareness skills, such as teaching the Resisting Aggression Defensively Program (radKIDS)
curriculum in 5 of the City's elementary schools. The radKIDS curriculum is structured to address
self-defense and self-awareness in today's youth. In addition, it provides youth with healthy
techniques on how to deal with aggression. All classes are typically held in approximately 8 hour
sessions on the weekend. These classes may be held at City owned Parks, the City of Miami
Police Department, or the schools depending availabity of space.
