School Resource Officers work inside their assigned schools. This program is a joint effort between The Springfield City Schools, The Springfield Police Division, and the Federal Government to bring a police presence into the schools. These officers are role models to students as well as an extra set of eyes to assist teachers in their efforts to provide an education to students. Officers are available daily to answer questions and exchange ideas with students, teachers, and parents. School Resource Officers can be contacted by calling their respective schools or by calling 324-7691. All School Resource Officers are sworn police officers of the Division and have full authority to enforce city, state, and federal laws, both on and off school property.
