STATEMENT ON DEPUTY POSITION CHANGE
Highland County Public Schools value the presence of a sheriff’s deputy on our campus and wish it was not necessary to reassign a deputy from being school based to other duties. While understanding the safety of our entire community is the Sheriff’s responsibility and respecting this difficult decision, we hope to work together with the Sheriff to find the resources and staff to support the permanent placement of a School Resource Officer (SRO) in our division.
As we have done in the past, Highland County Public Schools will work closely with the Highland County Sheriff’s Office and other law enforcement agencies to ensure the safety of our students, staff, families, and facilities Both the School Board and the administration believe this to be one of our most important responsibilities.
