Frederick County SROs want to be a presence, resource at schools

Deputy First Class Amber Owens of the Frederick County Sheriff’s Office bent over to speak with a group of small children dashing through Frederick High School on Tuesday. They laughed and ran around her legs during an event for the community to meet officers stationed in schools. Owens, a school resource officer, said with a chuckle, “People need to get to know their SROs.” With the first day of school coming next week, SROs in Frederick County are ready to get back into schools and create a positive impact.
