The City of DeLand is considering a School Resource Officer Agreement with the Volusia County School Board. This agreement, planned for review, aims to improve student and law enforcement relations, deter crime on school grounds, and enforce laws. A uniformed officer would maintain a visible presence at school sites and provide presentations on law enforcement topics. This initiative involves establishing a formal partnership and operational framework for law enforcement services within schools. While no construction is involved, the agreement's implementation could create opportunities for related administrative and support services. Businesses offering legal services, administrative support, or educational program development may find opportunities in supporting the agreement's operational needs.
