Our School Resource Officers continued thier professional development this week as they attended the 2026 TASSRO Summer Conference.

This annual training event brings together SROs from across the state to share best practices, strengthen school safety strategies, and build relationships with fellow law enforcement and education professionals.

We appreciate the dedication of our SROs and their commitment to keeping Morgan County schools safe for our students, teachers, and staff.
