A School Resource Officer is a specially trained, state-certified law enforcement officer who is assigned to schools during the academic year. The School Resource Officer Program creates a relationship between law enforcement officers, teachers, school personnel and parents and develops a positive relationship between law enforcement and students.
Suwannee Riverside Elementary (SRE) introduced its newest School Resource Officer, Rashard Fleming, on Monday, Dec. 12. Fleming has eight years of law enforcement experience in the School Resource Division and is excited to embark on this new path in his career, protecting the students and staff of SRE.
Fleming and his wife have been married for five years and have two children, both of who attend SRE. In his free time, he enjoys spending time with his family and friends. During football season, Fleming, alongside Suwannee Middle School Resource Deputy Slade Collins, enjoys coaching the Suwannee Youth Football League 12u team.
