NASRO highlights student-centered standards for SROs focused on safety, mentorship, prevention and relationship-building — not routine school discipline

The National Association of School Resource Officers (NASRO) announced that it will present its 2026 Floyd Ledbetter National School Resource Officer of the Year Award to Deputy Darr Anderson, a school resource officer with the Canyon County (Idaho) Sheriff’s Office.

Presenters will focus on preventing and responding to school violence, including shootings, during the 36^th annual National School Safety Conference, June 28 to July 2, in Reno, Nevada. The National Association of School Resource Officers hosts the conference.

NASRO announces a first-of-its-kind training course to prepare school resource officers (SROs) to face lethal school threats on their own. 

Yesterday’s tragic incidents on a college campus and at a preschool underscore the importance of preparing for such attacks, according to the National Association of School Resource Officers (NASRO). 

NASRO releases statement supporting "bell-to-bell" bans on cell phone access by students in K-12 schools.

Two experts from the U.S. Secret Service National Threat Assessment Center will help school safety leaders find ways to enhance behavioral threat assessment and management programs during a national summit in Florida in January.
