Campus Security

PUSD, with the approval of their Personnel Commission, has revised the job description and scope of work for campus security personnel.  In order to provide high-quality, uniform delivery of services to secondary campuses, the Board and City Council have made this issue the #2 priority for the Joint Staff Committee.  The job description now requires that applicants meet physical as well as aptitude qualifications.  Pasadena Police Department (PPD) will provide training for security officers and staff four times per year and will provide the officers’ uniforms.  While the supervision of Security Officers are under PUSD’s Director Child Welfare, Attendance and Safety, PPD’s involvement with the Security Officers will allow better interaction between them and the Safe Schools Team, more even deployment of resources and more standard alignment with the City of Pasadena’s Security Officers.
