With 13contract cities and Orange County’s unincorporated areas, the Orange County Sheriff’s Department is responsible for the safety of students and staff for more than 125 public and private schools.
While sound tactics and strategy for how to handle violence on school campuses have been in place for many years, the Sheriff’s Department recently launched a new standardized program that will help law enforcement and districts better prepare for, and potentially prevent, critical incidents on campus.
This summer, the OCSD launched APT – Assess, Prepare, Train – to create a cohesive and comprehensive approach to campus safety.
