Officer Roberts was born in Chicago, Illinois, and grew up in the city’s western suburbs. He now resides in Indianapolis, Indiana, where he is pursuing his law enforcement career.

Inspired by the values behind his name—integrity, fairness, and righteousness—Officer Roberts has long been drawn to public service. He comes from a family with deep Chicago roots and has a younger brother who also serves in law enforcement on the West Coast.

Please join me in welcoming Officer Roberts to Herron Classical Schools family. If you see him around campus, take a moment to say hello and make him feel at welcome.

Community Meeting on Teen Va**ng Awareness

Tonight, Chief Engel along with the Assistant Head of School Mr. Westerfeld met with a small group of concerned parents and community partners at Herron High School to discuss the growing issue of teen va**ng. He provided valuable information on how to recognize the signs of va**ng, shared insights on how today’s youth are gaining access to these devices, and listened to the concerns of the group.

This meeting was an important opportunity for us to come together, learn more about the risks, and explore ways to support our kids in making healthy choices. We are committed to continuing the conversation and providing resources to keep our community safe.
