Thank you, Nacogdoches Law Enforcement Foundation! The Nacogdoches ISD Police Department is incredibly grateful for the 8 medical Anchor Bags donated to our department. These bags are equipped with critical medical supplies that will help our officers provide lifesaving care during the crucial minutes following a critical emergency.

We are also grateful to Eric Corley and Dr. Klingenberg, lead instructors in Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC), for their vital role in ensuring these bags are equipped with the right supplies and in providing the training that goes alongside them. Thank you to everyone who continues to invest in the safety of our schools and community and helps us protect, serve, and preserve lives!

Big thank you to Little Caesars Nacogdoches for always being so gracious and taking care of our officers with lunch today!

Our officers are spending the day in ALERRT training, and after all that training, pizza definitely hit the spot! Nothing like a little carbs and cheese to keep everyone going.

We truly appreciate our community partners who keep our officers fed, fueled, and ready to go! Your continued support of our NISD Police Department means so much to us.
