SCHOOL RESOURCE OFFICER TRACEY DENDINGER

“Being a police officer is so much more than just enforcing the law. I have a profound passion for community engagement - working with children, residents, businesses, and organizations, and doing whatever I can to make this community, down to even just one life, better in some way.”

For the past 13 years, Bartlett Police Department has supported my passion and drive with trainings, opportunities, and positions that allow me to work with the community and build those lasting relationships. I like the Simon Synek quote: “If we want to feel an undying passion for our work, if we want to feel we are contributing to something bigger than ourselves, we all need to know our WHY.”
