Get to Know Our School Police Officers in Our New Series, "Behind the Badge"

In our new series, Behind the Badge, we're getting to know the brave men and women of the Palm Beach County School Police Department and highlighting the many ways they go above and beyond to protect our students and staff.


We begin the series with Officer Jim O'Sullivan at A.W. Dreyfoos School of the Arts. Officer O'Sullivan says he "won the lottery" when he came to School Police and started working at Dreyfoos. Students and staff say the way he develops relationships with those on campus sets him apart and makes him a special member of the school community.

To help make that happen, students at 25 schools met at Santaluces High School for the first annual event. The students who attended say the FutureMakers Forum will help them become better leaders and give them the confidence to bring new ideas to their school.
