The Orange Cove Police Department School Resource Officer (SRO) is a full time sworn police officer, who is assigned to work with the schools in Orange Cove in an effort to provide a safe school environment.

The SRO provides law enforcement and police services to the schools, school grounds and areas adjacent to the school. Additionally, the SRO serves as a liaison between the school and the local police department.
