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.”
