School Resource Officers

The School Resource Officer Program started in Guilford County in 1994 to provide a safe atmosphere conducive for learning in schools. The program focuses on safety for students, staff, and visitors on campus.

The School Resource Officer works with the respective administrations, faculties, staff, students, and parents to establish a liaison with school personnel with a goal to prevent juveniles from becoming delinquents. The School Resource Officer also helps to maintain a safe and secure environment on campus that will be conducive to learning and help prevent criminal activities and disturbances. The School Resource Officer also promotes positive attitudes regarding the role of law enforcement in society and informs students of their rights and responsibilities as residents in a lawful society.
