SHERIFF'S DEPUTIES COMPLETE NASRO TRAINING

Between July 20th and July 24th, 2015 Detectives Kevin Hall and Andrew Clas, both members of the Calvert County Sheriff's Office School Liaison Unit, attended the National Association of School Resource Officers (NASRO) basic school resource officer course in Dover, Delaware.  Members of police agencies from Maryland, Delaware, and Connecticut completed the 40 hour course that emphasizes three main areas of instruction: -Functioning as a police officer in the school setting - Working as a resource and problem solver -Developing teaching skills.

The mission of the National Association of School Resource Officers is to provide the highest quality of training to school-based law enforcement officers in order to promote safer schools and safer kids.  NASRO is an organization for school-based law enforcement officers, school administrators, and school security/safety professionals working as partners to protect students, faculty and staff, and their school community.


The Calvert County Sheriff's Office has sent numerous detectives through the NASRO training course in years past.  It is important that School Liaison deputies have the most current and best training available to assist with their day to day activities during the school year.
