Nature of the Problem. The 1988, 1992, 1999, 2007, 2011 and 2015 issues of the Memoranda of Agreement have been designed to ensure cooperation between law enforcement and education officials and ultimately to protect the educational environment. The undersigned parties hereby recognize the need to update the Memorandum of Agreement and to reaffirm the commitment to work together as equal partners in addressing evolving problems and emergencies of mutual concern. Recent events in New Jersey and throughout the nation have made clear that while schools are generally safe places for students and staff members, a wide range of offenses are occasionally committed on school grounds1. These offenses against persons or property may involve the actual or threatened infliction of bodily injury, the unlawful use or possession of firearms or other dangerous weapons, dealing or use of illicit controlled dangerous substances, arson or fire-setting activities, sexual assault and criminal sexual contact, bias crimes, illegal gambling, vandalism, and theft. It is understood and agreed that the commission of these types of offenses on school grounds, whether directed at students, school employees, or school grounds, not only undermines the educational environment, but can directly endanger the safety and well-being of members of the school community and thus requires an appropriate and decisive response. It is further understood and agreed that there is a demonstrable need for law enforcement and education officials to cooperate and to share information, as appropriate, to address acts of violence or potential acts of violence by students that may occur off school grounds or at times other than during regular school hours, and that may involve victims or potential victims that are not members of the school community. Experience has shown that violent acts committed by children off school grounds can have serious deleterious effects upon the school community, just as acts of violence committed on school grounds can lead to further violence or retaliation at other places.
