Weston University Law Enforcement Day
The Law Enforcement program day of the Weston University Class of 2020 provided participants with the chance to get a perspective of police work by spending a day with the Broward Sheriff’s Office. City Manager Don Decker greeted the students in the morning, followed by a roll call greeting by Captain Kevin Butler of the BSO Weston District.
The students began their day with crime scene technicial at Markham Park, and were then taken to the tactical training facility and shooting range to experience how deputies train for their line of work. Following lunch, the students met with SWAT and K9 before touring the BSO Weston District Office. Deputies Danielle Quinones and Dominic Raimondi led the group’s activities throughout the day.

A Day of Service and Love on February 14
It’s been two years. The vivid, heart-wrenching memories are etched in our minds as we reflect upon the lives lost in the Stoneman Douglas High School tragedy on Valentine’s Day 2018. Broward County Public Schools proclaimed the day to be a “Day of Service and Love.” It is an early release day across the district and students will be in school; yet, will have the opportunity to work on service projects rather than the standard curriculum. The entire district will observe a moment of silence at 10:17 a.m.

Presidents Day Observance
Originally established in 1885 in recognition of President George Washington's birthday, the holiday became a part of the 1971 Uniform Monday Holiday Act in an attempt to create more three-day weekends for workers. The holiday is now popularly known as Presidents Day. All City administrative offices (City Hall, the Community Center, the Public Works Services Center, and the Building Department) will be closed on Monday, February 17 in observance of Presidents Day.
