Giving tree

The request for help was much greater than in previous years with a record number of names turned in. Holiday gifts were distributed to more than 300 children. For many of these children, this will be the only gift they receive during the holiday season.
SPD Certified
At a recent appearance before the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education (TCLEOSE), the Shenandoah Police Department was unanimously awarded a contract to provide training to other state law enforcement agencies. The contract gives Shenandoah police the ability to host and conduct professional training programs for other law enforcement agencies and report those training hours to the state for attendance credits. While they will provide some state mandated training, the focus of the training will be advanced leadership skills and law enforcement management seminars.
