School Resource Officer
The function of the School Resource Officer (SRO) is to collaborate on-site with the school administration and staff to investigate crime on school property, incorporate crime prevention into the school curriculum and enhance communication with the community. This is accomplished through maintaining a safe and secure school environment by establishing a permanent office in the school.
The School Resource Officer also acts as a positive role model and mentor to the school community. By being actively involved in the school, the SRO can provide individual mentoring to students, fostering a positive image so that enhanced communication with students, staff, and parents can exist. The SRO can also attend extra-curricular activities in support of the school community. In addition, the SRO handles all investigations involving the students, staff, transportation and school property.
