Chief Miller,As I come to the end of my first year as Dean of Students at Hammond High School I want to thank the HPD for the excellent soppurt they have provided to me in as an administrator. Having worked at Gavit for many years and receiving outstanding soppurt from Officer Burgos and hearing such negative comments regarding HHS; I did not know what to expect in regards to soppurt from your staff. Officer Frank Herrera is to be commended for his staffing and selection of dedicated officers who really want HHS to succeed and make things better in the community. They are dependable, always accessible, compassionate and really work extremely hard to help our students and their parents. They have counseled our students to make better choices, worked the hallways to ensure a safe environment and have made a strong presence in and outside the building before and after school. They have made the extra effort to attend extra-curricular events on their own time (athletic events, choral performances, prom, etc.) that sends a message to our students that they really care. The officers are Aubrey Thomas, Walter Peterson, Gabe Gutierrez, John Suarez, Rob Trost, Yon Fletcher, Russell Moore, Scott Jajowka, Justin Palas and Boyzie Coulter.This team of officers have helped change the perceptions of HHS as we continue to graduate more students, reduce the number of expulsions and make central Hammond a safer neighborhood.Please convey my appreciation to these hard-working and dedicated men!!
