The Milton Police Department currently has two school resource officers (SRO) assigned to the Milton Public Schools. The goal of an SRO is to serve as a resource for students, teachers, non-instructional staff, parents, administrators, and the community. Since the SRO is a trained police officer, they also focus on prevention and early intervention, improving the school's security policies and providing support and help for students who may be struggling with personal issues that could affect their educational welfare.
