In one of the largest promotional ceremonies in its history, the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office recently promoted 41 detention officers in one day.

The agency promoted five lieutenants, 13 sergeants and 23 corporals at the ceremony, which took place November 6 at the University of Texas at San Antonio’s downtown campus auditorium.

“Having 41 detention officers promoted in one day speaks to the professional development and career opportunities available in corrections,” said Bexar County Jail Administrator Deputy Chief Raul S. Banasco. “What set a lot of these individuals apart was that so many of them worked hard to earn their professional designations from the American Correctional Association. We have a total of 90 in our agency who have taken this step, and more will be doing so in the future.”

Sheriff’s Office officials said the event was a sign of the agency’s commitment to provide career advancement opportunities for its detention officers and to promote from within, whenever possible. They added the promotion ceremony was a celebration of the advancement of the officers as they moved into positions of greater responsibility.
