School Crossing Guards / Traffic Control Officers
School Crossing Guards (SCGs) and Traffic Control Officers (TCOs) are part-time, civilian members of the Sheriff’s Office, under the supervision of the School Resource Unit. The SCGs help ensure the safe movement of pedestrians to and from schools at designated locations; TCOs assist by controlling vehicular traffic around some of the more congested school campuses. SCGs and TCOs receive classroom and field training for school crossing procedures, traffic control, first aid, and human diversity.
