Today, February 15th, is National School Resource Officer Day, and we want to take a moment to recognize and thank the very best — Marshal Bradd McMinn. Commerce is blessed to have an SRO who does far more than wear a badge. Marshal McMinn builds relationships with our students, supports our staff, and helps create a safe and positive environment across our campuses every single day. He is a protector, a mentor, a role model, and a friend to so many of our kids. Whether he’s greeting students in the morning, attending school events, or stepping in whenever needed, his presence makes a difference. Marshal McMinn, thank you for your dedication to Commerce Public Schools and to our entire Tiger community. We appreciate your commitment to keeping our schools safe and your heart for our students. We also want to extend our sincere appreciation to the Quapaw Nation Marshal Service for providing Marshal McMinn to serve our schools. Your partnership and support help ensure the safety and well-being of our students and staff every day. Commerce has the best SRO — and we’re proud to call you ours. #NationalSRODay #TigerPride #CommerceProud #WeBleedTigerBlue
