The Butler County Sheriff’s Office is currently accepting applications for School Resource Officer.
Job Duties And Additional Information: A School Resource Officer performs a wide variety of police and law enforcement activities specifically related to Butler County schools during the academic school year. The position is considered part-time/seasonal – a School Resource Officer works 40-hours per week during the school year and is off during summer months and school holidays and breaks.
What Is a School Resource Officer? An SRO is a member of a select group of specially trained, veteran law enforcement officers assigned to a school on a full-time basis. Deputies assigned to our local school district’s perform a Triad-model based approach to school based policing: law enforcement officer, law-related counselor, and law-related educator. An SRO is not merely a “cop on campus.” SRO’s proactively server the school districts in several ways:
Law Enforcement – The SRO is a visible law enforcement presence on campus to deter, prevent, and respond to crime. Deputies advise school officials on law-related matters, helps assess school safety needs and serve as a vital link to other emergency personnel during critical incidents. In addition to supporting faculty in the schools, the SRO has an opportunity to provide other educational activities to the entire school community. Our Deputies provides crisis and emergency training to the faculty and staff.
Classroom Instructor – The SRO serve as a guest classroom instructor, teaching law-related and safety-related topics which are relevant to the school’s learning goals. Law-related education is designed to promote responsible citizenship and give students a basic understanding of how our legal system works.
Advisor – The SRO serve as an informal advisor and conflict mediator to students, parents, and faculty. Students are encouraged to seek advice from the SRO so that issues can be addressed in a positive, trusting atmosphere before it develops into more serious problems.
Role Model – The SRO serve as a role model to students. SROs must possess a high level of character and personal integrity and consistently display these attributes to students. Through this, students learn and understand what a professional law enforcement officer does.
By fully incorporating these elements, the measurable results of SROs are multiplied greatly and extend beyond the boundaries of the school. This is in addition to the lasting results which may never be measured except in the lives of the students they positively affect.
SRO Classroom Presentations include but are not limited to:
- Anti-Bullying
- Dating Violence
- Driving Safety
- DUI Laws
- Importance of Safety Drills
- Drug and Alcohol Awareness
- Internet Safety (including social media dangers, texting/ sexting, and other age-related topics)
- Basic understanding of Search & Seizure laws (4th Amendment provisions)
- Crime Prevention
A School Resource Officer is not a classroom or administrative disciplinarian. Although he or she operates within an educational context, the SRO is a sworn, state-certified law enforcement officer governed by Constitutional, Federal, and State laws.
The SRO’s disciplinary responses are limited to law violations or safety-related incidents. School-related discipline for misbehavior or school rule violations is left to school officials.
We operate on the premise that every student has a trusting relationship with at least one adult on campus. For many students, that person is an SRO. With that in mind, SROs are encouraged to become involved in various student activities such as sports, clubs, and special interest groups. SROs support school wide efforts to educate students on the consequences of unacceptable behavior, both in the school and in the community. Many crimes have been solved and many crises averted because of strong, trusting relationships developed by School Resource Officers.
