The
purpose of the SRO Program is to provide support for the
students, teachers and staff in any areas that relate
to law enforcement, by a visible, active police presence
on campus. This support includes protecting personnel
and property on school campuses, gathering information
concerning criminal activity involving students on school
property, provide group or individual counseling, classroom
instruction, investigate crimes which occur on school
grounds and enforce laws and ordinances of the City of
Vestavia Hills and the State of Alabama.
The
School Resource Officer will serve as liaison, between
the Police Department, the Board of Education and the
Schools providing an information link regarding problems,
possible solutions and/or ways to work more effectively
together. The SRO will promote positive police-community
relations, maintain a “service-oriented” policy
on and off campus, and make presentations to school and
civic groups as requested.
