School Resource Officers

The School Resource Officer (SRO) Program is responsible for ensuring our educational facilities are safe and secure resulting in a wholesome learning environment for our youth. School Resource Officers conduct classroom instruction, investigate law enforcement issues, and build student/parent relationships through involvement in extra-curricular activities while maintaining a harmonious relationship with the Olathe District Schools.
