The Safe Schools Program
This safety program places police officers in the Morris Hills district classrooms. Police officers from Rockaway Borough, Rockaway Twp., Denville and Wharton spend one day a week in the district's two high schools, Morris Hills and Morris Knolls. The idea is to develope a comfort level between officers and students. This program makes the officer visible and available but similar to the DARE officers, the police officers assigned to the schools will only take action if an emergency occurs.
For more information on this or any other program, please call Rockaway Borough Police Headquarters at (973) 627-1314..
