Logan Countyâs high school and five feeder schools in Adairville, Auburn, Chandlers, Lewisburg, and Olmstead will continue sharing three school resource officers (SRO) in the 2021-2022 fiscal year.
The Logan County School District serves approximately 3500 students in the system which calculates to 1166 students per officer to protect, not counting administrators, educators, and support staff.
The countyâs fiscal court approved a contract with the Logan County School System Tuesday to provide three trained and certified deputies who are to work at all times when school is in session, as well as during teacher training days. The district agrees to reimburse the county 60% of the officerâs wages and benefits totaling up to 195 days per year. When school is not in session, the deputies will be working the road.
