The purpose of this Masters Thesis is to examine two equally important but very different approaches to law enforcement in the school setting. The first approach to be examined is the utilization of uniformed police officers in the school setting to teach students. The most commonly used programs that fall under this pedagological approach are the Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) and Gang Resistance Education and Training (G.R.E.A.T.). These programs are designed to raise individual student morals, teach the difference between ;;Right;; and ;;Wrong;; and to heighten levels of student resistance to peer pressure and negative externalities. The other approach to be examined involves the actual enforcement of the laws by law enforcement officers patrolling the school campuses. There has been only a handful of programs implemented for this purpose and of these programs there has been a minimal amount of information gathered regarding their success. However, literature will be viewed and secondary data will be examined in an effort to make inferences regarding the law enforcement approach and the possible outcomes of such a program.
