Sheriff's Deputies and Students Heading Back to School

Sheriff Tim Cameron greets a student on the first day of school in 2018 at Banneker Elementary School 
Sheriff Tim Cameron and the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office are pleased to announce that for the first time there will be a dedicated School Resource Officer at each of the public middle and high schools in St. Mary’s.

The Sheriff’s Office has seven School Resource Officers in place for the 2019-2020 school year, at Chopticon High School, Great Mills High School, Leonardtown High School, Esperanza Middle School, Leonardtown Middle School, Margaret Brent Middle School and Spring Ridge Middle School.

The first day of classes for St. Mary’s County Public Schools is Tuesday, Sept. 3, 2019. Parochial schools open to students on Tuesday, Aug. 27, 2019.

There will be increased patrols around both public and private schools in St. Mary’s County on the first day of classes. Sheriff Cameron and deputies will be at each public school on Sept. 3 for the first day of classes to ensure safety and security.

“I would like teachers, students and parents to be assured that their school campuses will be safe when the doors open on the first day,” Sheriff Cameron said, “so that educators can get back to doing what they do best: Fostering a learning environment for children.”

“I am especially pleased that our office has a dedicated School Resource Officer this year for each public high school and each public middle school in St. Mary’s County,” the Sheriff said. “School Resource Officers not only provide for a law-enforcement presence, but are also positive influences on students each school day.”

Drivers in St. Mary’s County also need to be aware that school buses will be back on the roads and there will be increased patrol enforcement.

Drivers must stop for school buses when their red flashing lights and stop signs are activated and deployed.

Failure to do so puts children in danger and the penalties are stiff. Drivers who run past a stopped school bus with its stop sign activated face a fine of $570 or three points on a driver’s license.

“With the start of the new school year, give yourself some extra time in your morning commutes,” Capt. Steve Hall, Special Operations Division Commander, said. “There is absolutely no valid reason to run past a stopped school bus picking up or dropping off children. Just don’t do it. Our deputies will be watching.”

Throughout the school year, parents are also encouraged to ensure that their children do not bring any contraband items to school.

Parochial schools in St. Mary's County reopened for classes today, Aug. 27, 2019. Public schools reopen to students on Tuesday, Sept. 3, 2019. School buses are back on the roads in St. Mary's County so be prepared to stop for them.

From the Maryland Drivers Manual:

If a vehicle has stopped on a roadway and is operating the alternately flashing red lights, the driver of any vehicle following or approaching the school vehicle shall:

-Stop at least 20 feet from the rear of the school vehicle, if approaching the school vehicle from its rear; or

-At least 20 feet from the front of the school vehicle, if approaching the school vehicle from its front.

The driver of any vehicle following or approaching the school vehicle may not proceed until the school vehicle resumes motion or the alternately flashing red lights are deactivated. This does not apply to the driver of a vehicle on a physically divided highway."

Drivers who run past a stopped school bus with its stop sign or red lights activated face a fine of $570 or three points on a driver’s license.

The St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office, with the assistance of the Maryland State Police and the Maryland State Highway Administration, will be conducting two roadside sobriety checkpoints on two nights over the Labor Day weekend.

A sobriety checkpoint will be conducted on Route 235 on Friday evening in the Lexington Park area, followed by another checkpoint on Saturday evening in the same area.

At the checkpoints, law enforcement officers will evaluate drivers for signs of alcohol or drug impairment. Drivers will also be checked for other traffic infractions.

The St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office recognizes that roadside sobriety checkpoints are highly visible and efficient tools used in efforts to combat impaired driving. Advance notification of sobriety checkpoints gives motorists the opportunity to make better decisions by preventing and deterring impaired driving in the first place. Advance notifications are also required by law for the validity of a sobriety checkpoint.

Sheriff Tim Cameron asks that everyone drive safely and sober, no matter what the occasion.

St. Mary's County Sheriff Tim Cameron met with several residents on Thursday at a Coffee with the Sheriff event held at the Northern Senior Activity Center in Charlotte Hall where he answered numerous questions and concerns.

The Sheriff provided an update on the ongoing animal cruelty investigation where two black lab dogs were found decapitated on a rural road in July in Mechanicsville. The St. Mary's County Crime Solvers is currently offering a $10,000 reward toward the arrest or indictment of the perpetrator. Information can be provided anonymously to Crime Solvers by calling 301-475-3333.

"We're still pursuing this case the best we can. It's not a case that we're going to let go," Sheriff Cameron told the group. "It's scary to me that someone could do that to an animal. Cutting the heads off, that's truly psychopathic."

The Sheriff also took questions about opioid abuse, new Sheriff's Office substations that are to be opened in the near future in Charlotte Hall and in Lexington Park and listened to concerns about speeding on local roads in Charlotte Hall and Mechanicsville.
