Mission Statement
 
The mission of the McComb School District Police Department is to protect the safety and well-being of all students, staff, and visitors by providing a secure and supportive learning environment. With a team of seven sworn police officers, we are committed to safeguarding lives and property, preventing crime, and fostering trust through professionalism, accountability, and collaboration with our schools, community, and law enforcement partners.

PREVENTION

District Safety Officers are a vital resource in crime prevention and maintaining order. Proactive, highly visible District Safety Officers leverage the ability of security teams.
 

OBSERVATION

District Safety Officers are trained in observing and recording pertinent information when crimes occur, documenting crime trend information and preventive strategies.
 

REPORTING

District Safety Officers are essential in reporting information to site administrators and School Police Officers to ensure the safety of students and staff. District Safety Officers are generally deployed to all high school, junior high school, middle school, and alternative school. District Safety Officers are responsible for security concerns on and around the immediate perimeter of school campuses, District facilities and assigned events. Other authorized functions may include monitoring and implementing safety standards established by the District.
