Welcome to the Navarro College Police Department website. I am so proud to be a part of such a progressive campus law enforcement agency that I would like to tell you a little more about our department.
The Navarro College Police Department currently employs 9 full-time and 2 part-time law enforcement officers that provide twenty-four hour patrol and protection of the four college campuses. The Campus Police Officers are licensed Peace Officers as defined under the laws of the State of Texas and thereby have the authority as peace officers. They are vested with all the powers, privileges, and immunities of Texas Peace Officers within the county, including all streets and roads, in which the college owns, rents, leases or otherwise controls property. The department’s authority is found in the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure and Chapter 51 of the Education Code.
The Navarro College Police Department is dedicated to enhancing the opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to participate in the educational experience by providing a safe and orderly environment. For more visibility and officer approachability, the Navarro College Police Department implemented a Bicycle Unit. We are planning for implementation of additional community policing efforts in the near future. Our department is committed to the prevention of crime and the protection of life and property.
The Navarro College Police Department is a community-oriented police agency, therefore we endeavor to become involved in the college community, and we invite the college community to become involved with us.
