Purpose The purpose of this document is to facilitate a clear
understanding of roles, duties, and
responsibilities. The School Resource Officer (SRO) will handle
all necessary law enforcement matters in schools when on duty at
the school. If the SRO is not available, a Patrol Deputy will be
dispatched to respond to the call for service. This Agreement will
enhance communication and cooperation between school administrators
and teachers, law enforcement officers, student, parents, service
providers, and the community. The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
is being set forth to provide universal clarification of
expectations and to provide consistency between officers, schools,
principals, and directors.
Goals and Objectives 1. Maintain a safe and secure environment
on a school campus which will be conducive to
learning. 2. Assistance and information sharing concerning
problems and issues affecting the school and
students. 3. Prevention of crime or delinquent behavior by
juveniles. 4. Establish a positive working relationship in a
cooperative effort to prevent juvenile
delinquency and assist in student development.
Assignment of School Resource Officer 1. The Clinton County
Sheriff’s Office agrees to provide a School Resource Officer to
the
Northeast Community School District. It is understood that the
SRO also serves as the DARE Deputy to multiple schools within
Clinton County. The SRO duties are on a limited, part-time function
as the DARE Deputy’s time permits.
2. The Clinton County Sheriff or designee will select proposed
sheriff’s deputy for the SRO assignment.
