This month's MHJH First Security Leadership Award recipient is Paysli Barker. Paysli is always working hard, with a smile on her face. She is eager to learn and wants to ensure everything is done and done with excellence. She is not afraid to ask questions and is willing to help others when they get stuck. Paysli is a quiet presence in the classroom, but when she is called on, she will speak up and speak out and she truly exemplifies what a model student looks like.

Last week, students in the Foundations of Law Enforcement class had the opportunity to hear from Lt. Tabitha Maze and Cpl. Julie Tilley of the Baxter County Detention Center. The officers provided an in-depth overview of jail operations and prisoner transport procedures, giving students valuable insight into the daily responsibilities of detention personnel.
In addition, Lt. Maze and Cpl. Tilley discussed the qualifications and training required for employment at the detention center after graduation, helping students better understand the expectations and opportunities available in this important field of law enforcement.
