JPO

Aloha,
Thank you for your interest in the Aiea Elementary School Junior Police Officer (JPO) Program. We look forward to serving our campus to provide a safe and secure commute to and from school every day. The JPO meet for duty morning at 7:30 am until the tardy bell and afternoon duty ending 15-20 minutes after school. Duties include crosswalks, stop signs, and greeters. The JPO program offers students a chance to develop responsibility and exposes them to leadership experience. All JPO are expected to be high level examples of D.R.E.A.M core values and model citizenship for others. Our upcoming events are as follows.

We will be participating in the annual HPD JPO drill competition. This will be a chance for all the JPO on the island to showcase their unity by drilling in a completion. Military professionals will be on hand to judge the competition and score each squad. Scores range from 97-100.

The Honolulu Police Department's Traffic Division oversees the Junior Police Officer (JPO) Program on Oahu.  This program is the only student traffic assistance program in the nation and has been active for over 80 years. 1

Only students in grades 5 and 6 have the honor of being members of the JPO.

Applications will be accepted into the first quarter of the new school year or until the roster is full. Please see Mr. Takeno for an application.

We hope to have a safe and successful year. Thank you for your support.

Mahalo,

Mr. Takeno
