Sheriff Sean Casey developed the Elementary School Liaison Program to foster positive relationships between law enforcement and students and pursue our vision of achieving unity with each other and the community.

Each ACPS elementary school is assigned a deputy who, in addition to their regular duties and assignments, spends time at their school to allow students, faculty, staff and parents to become familiar with them and have positive engagement in the school environment.

Deputies focus on building relationships with students and the school employees by joining kids at lunchtime, taking part in school activities like career day and reading events, greeting students at arrival or dismissal, and simply providing a regular presence. While visiting, the deputies also survey general security and safety by checking the doors, windows and grounds, and touching base with school security personnel. Deputies only take law enforcement action if a situation occurs that requires such a response. 

Deputies appreciate getting to spend time with students and being a resource to their schools.
