One of the most essential duties of a school security guard is to act as the first line of defence against suspicious activity. This can include checking visitors identification and rejecting those that appear suspicious or knowing how to use metal detectors and other security technology to ensure those entering the school are not carrying weapons or illegal substances. In the case of severe security breaches, the security guard may have to act in self-defence or deploy their firearm (if applicable).
School security officers are responsible for constantly observing the behaviour of those on campus. This includes regular patrols of the premises, and dorms (if applicable), conducting random security checks and reporting suspicious behaviour to higher authorities. They should also alert the correct personnel when they find evidence of substance or alcohol abuse, illegal substances, child abuse, or medical conditions that require further interference.
