The Kentucky
Center for School Safety has been actively
involved with implementation and training
for School Resource Officer (SRO) programs
statewide. The Center maintains a listing of
all SROs in the state, and estimates that
there are between 100 and 150 officers in
the state.
It is one
of the goals of the KCSS to work with school
districts and law enforcement to help
implement, improve, and guide SRO programs
statewide. To those ends, the KCSS is
working to identify those programs which
model effective strategies and provide that
information to districts considering an SRO
program through this website, through the
KCSS newsletter, through the SRO video, and
the SRO Conference.
While most
school districts enjoy a collaborative
arrangement with their local law enforcement
offices, there are five districts in
Kentucky where the district employs its own
special law enforcement officers: Clay,
Fayette, Jefferson, McCracken and Nicholas.
Many
exemplary SRO and truancy programs exist
throughout the state. These model programs
can serve to provide inspiration and options
for fledgling programs.
