First responders are our hometown heroes, protecting us every day. This year, FLOCK, the non-profit outreach arm of House of Raeford Farms, coordinated a special celebration to honor select School Resource Officers (SROs) chosen by FLOCK for their ongoing dedication and sacrifice in protecting students and staff. Their presence each day provides safety, builds trust, and fosters positive relationships within our schools.

During the celebration, FLOCK presented each honored SRO with a plaque and gift card, thanking them for their service in protecting our schools, as well as for the mentoring and positive impact they have on students.
