The School Resource Officers are assigned to various Kingsport City Schools. They provide essential security for the school and its faculty, staff, and students. They are present on campus throughout the school day as well as during numerous after hours extracurricular events.  They help to maintain the strong cooperative working relationship between the police department and the school system. Kingsport Police Patrol Officers also supplement the School Resource Officer program by logging numerous daily walk-throughs at all Kingsport City School campuses.
