Crime Solvers Scholastic Program
The Crime Solvers Scholastic Program is designed to get our youth involved in civil service and community awareness. Crime Solvers has a club in most middle schools and in some of the high schools in Chesterfield County and the city of Colonial Heights. Each club’s main objective is to promote Crime Solvers in their school by word of mouth and through promotional items. The clubs also determine how much of a reward to give tipsters who help resolve cases involving their school campus. Throughout the school year, club members learn how Crime Solvers works and they discuss creative ways to get the word out to their fellow classmates. To thank the members for their efforts during the monthly meetings, they may have pizza parties, listen to guest speakers (K-9 handlers or Crime Scene Technicians) and participate in some "hands on" activities (such as fingerprinting). Each school club has a Faculty Advisor, a Crime Solvers board member, and a Law Enforcement Coordinator. The student members do not investigate crimes or take Crime Solvers tips. If your school does not have a Crime Solvers club and you are interested in starting one, please contact the Crime Solvers Business Office at 804-748-1278 or click HERE to send an email to a Crime Solvers Coordinator.

| Reagan Urban (pictured) and Samantha Menjivar, from the Scholastic Club at Tomahawk Creek Middle School, received gift bags for their assistance in the preliminary stages of a new fundraising opportunity for Crime Solvers. Crime Solvers now accepts empty foil drink pouches (like CapriSun) in partnership with TerraCycle to raise money. For every pouch sent to TerraCycle, that company will donate $0.02 to our program. In the 2010-2011 school year, the clubs will begin a more organized effort to collect pouches. | ![]() |
| During the 2008-2009 school year, the Crime Solvers club at Clover Hill High School created and performed a skit "Crime Solvers Man". Phil-Oney and Miss Demeaner were up to no good...until Crime Solvers Man and his counterparts, Hyper Link and Texta Tip, came to save the day. We look forward to more productions in future clubs. | ![]() |

Cosby High School club member Amanda Taylor showed intense concentration as she dusted for latent fingerprints from a drink can during a forensic demonstration. In case you are curious...she DID pull a usable print! |

Mr. Jim Bonner, Faculty Advisor for the scholastic club of Manchester Middle School, made an effort at the same ride...and don't worry...the student behind Mr. Bonner WAS NOT run over during the exercise. |
