This Memorandum of Understanding documents that agreement. During the coming school year, the program would directly serve Round Rock High School, Cedar Ridge High School, Stony Point High School, and the Round Rock Opportunity Center. In addition, the following schools would be served by school resource officers assigned to "Float' among these schools: C .

The Memorandum of Understanding also assigns ten police officers and one police sergeant to serve those schools. Staff recommends approving the Memorandum of Understanding.
