The Surrey Board of Education is the 2009 recipient of a Solicitor General’s Community Safety and Crime Prevention Award.
The board has been recognized in the "Community Organization" category for "exemplary leadership through developing innovative projects, key activities or initiatives to promote safe communities."
The award cites the board for making crime prevention a priority and says the Surrey Board of Education and its safe schools department are models of leadership and innovation and are recognized for creating safe and healthy schools for all Surrey students.
The award also notes the board has "generously supported the implementation of several programs, including the Alternative to Suspension program, Wraparound Surrey, First Step and Straight Talk".
Each year, the Ministry of Public Safety and Solicitor General recognizes individuals, groups and programs that have made outstanding contributions to crime prevention and community safety with its Solicitor General Community Safety and Crime Prevention Awards.
