“A school resource officer, by federal definition, is a career law
enforcement officer with sworn authority who is deployed by an
employing police department or agency in a community-oriented
policing assignment to work in collaboration with one or more
schools.”
--- National Association of School Resource Officers
The school resource officer interacts with students within the
school, and provides school personnel with valuable resources. A
school resource officer is a law enforcement officer, mentor, and
educator. When the designated school resource officer is absent, we
have several other deputies that can cover in his absence. Our Road
Patrol deputies stop at the schools within Delaware County. They
walk around the school and check in with School Personnel to make
sure everything is in order within the school.
