Due to the recent retirement of the Genesee Valley BOCES School Resource Officer, Deputy Richard S. Schildwaster has been assigned to fill this position.  He is a six-year veteran of the Sheriff’s Office and was the former SRO at Byron-Bergen Central School District.  
 
The Byron-Bergen Central School District has selected Deputy Joshua A. Brabon as its new SRO.  Deputy Brabon is a 2012 Advanced Regents graduate of L.A. Webber High School in Lyndonville, New York, and a 2016 graduate of SUNY Brockport with a Bachelor’s Degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Environmental Studies.   Deputy Brabon brings with him experience as a former SRO at the Perry Central School District and is a 2 ½-year veteran of the Genesee County Sheriff’s Office. 
 
Additionally, the Oakfield-Alabama, Pembroke, Alexander, and Pavilion Central School Districts also renewed their commitments for this year’s School Resource Officers on campus. 
                                          
Sheriff Sheron has previously stated that it his goal to establish a School Resource Officer in all county schools to ensure the safety and protection of the students and faculty.  “Although the cost associated with placing a School Resource Officer in the schools is significant, I continue to believe the safety and security of our children should be of the utmost precedence.”
