Rabun County Schools adding Resource Officer

The topic of adding a second school resource officer to Rabun County Schools was discussed last week at the Rabun County Board of Commissioners meeting.

Speaking with Post two commissioner Stephen Arbitter, he explained to us that the current resource officer works through the Rabun County Sheriff’s Office, and the Board of Education pays 75% of benefits, as well as salary.

Safety is always a top priority when it comes to students of Rabun County Schools, which is why the addition of a new resource officer was approved.

The second officer will be paid the same way as the first officer.
