Sheriff-Hosted School Safety Meeting

10/20/2026

Today I was glad to be able to instruct an important Sheriff-Hosted School Safety Meeting at the Navarro County Justice Center.

In accordance with Local Government Code, Chapter 85.024 (https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/LG/htm/LG.85.htm...),

being the sheriff of a county with a total population of less than 350,000, and where public schools are located, a semiannual school safety meeting will be conducted.

Law enforcement officials from all agencies across Navarro County along with Fire, EMS, Emergency Management representatives and all school administrators were invited to attend.

As many know, in today's world now more so than ever, school safety is of paramount importance and we have always taken this matter very seriously.

I appreciate the opportunity to conduct a meeting of such significance and I appreciate all the professionals who came and were in attendance from throughout our county.

Today's meeting included a presentation by CISD Sgt Todd Teetz on a past criminal investigation that was conducted in reference to school safety at the CISD campus.

Thank you to everyone who attended today's meeting.

Sheriff Elmer Tanner
