School Resource Officer Program

The School Resource Officer Program has three components designed to enhance the support provided to the Urbana Middle School (UMS) and the Urbana High School (UHS):

The first component, obviously, is to provide law enforcement to the middle and high schools. The second component is to provide counseling on an as-needed basis to students, staff and parents of students of the middle and high schools. The third component is to provide law enforcement related education to students at the middle and high school, in order to enhance the students’ knowledge of laws applicable to juveniles.

Law enforcement related education assists students in their understanding of the laws applicable to juveniles. A better understanding of the laws allows students to become better-informed citizens, and hopefully encourages them to obey the law.
