BY: M. of A. Eachus

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 February 15, 2026, as School Resource Officer
 Appreciation Day in the State of New York

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to recognize and
honor those distinguished officers who devote themselves to public
service, demonstrating great courage and diligence in providing for the
care and welfare of the citizens and students of their communities and
this great Empire State; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 15, 2026, as
School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in the State of New York, in
conjunction with the observance of National School Resource Officer
Appreciation Day; and

 WHEREAS, The National Association of School Resource Officers
(NASRO) is dedicated to making schools and children safer by providing
the highest-quality training to school-based law enforcement officers;
and

 WHEREAS, These sworn law enforcement officers fill a three-part
role, serving as informal mentors or counselors, law educators, and law
enforcement officers to support the students and communities they serve;
they are valuable and essential members of the education community who
deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pursuit of
keeping schools and students safe; and

 WHEREAS, By training law enforcement officers to counsel, educate,
and protect school communities, the members of NASRO continuously lead
by example and promote a positive image of law enforcement to school
children and school communities; and

 WHEREAS, SRO programs across the globe are founded as collaborative
efforts by police agencies, law enforcement officers, educators,
students, parents, and communities to create safe learning environments,
provide valuable resources to school staff members, foster positive
relationships with students, and develop strategies to resolve problems
that affect youth with the goal of protecting all children so they can
reach their fullest potential; and

 WHEREAS, School resource officers are valuable and essential members
of the education community and deserve unwavering respect and support
from the public in the pursuit of keeping schools and students safe;
now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 15, 2026, as
School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in the State of New York; and
be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to the Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
