| SRO/Police Information |  |  | | SRO's working with staff to keep schools safe. |
The Office of Safety and Security works closely with the Saint Paul
Police Department to keep students and schools safe through the School
Resource Officer (SRO) program.
This partnership allows 17 of our schools to work closely with 12 licensed law enforcement officers on a daily basis.
School
resource officers (SROs) play an important role in helping students
develop as well as keeping buildings safe and investigating the
occasional complaint.
SROs often mentor students, counsel
students and act as mediators when disagreements arise. They are also
very active in training teachers and staff to identify and deal with
emerging safety issues.
The Saint Paul School District currently has twelve Saint Paul Police
Officers working in its’ buildings as School Resource Officers (SROs).
These officers receive special training and are members of the National
Association of School Resource Officers (NASRO). We have invited our
SROs to write articles for our website. Please check back soon for the
first article.
