KHSD Police Department

Welcome from the Kern High School District Police Department.

We are here to serve and assist you!

Each of our nineteen comprehensive campuses is assigned a full time Police Officer. Additional officers serve as rovers, truancy officers and traffic enforcement officers. The primary mission of our Police Officers is to ensure the safety of our students and staff.

Our officers are POST certified peace officers as defined in the California Penal Code 830.32. All Officer have several years of experience working previously at a Sheriff’s Department or municipal Police Department before joining the Kern High School District Police Department. In addition to the standard training provided to all Peace Officers in the State of California, our Officers receive supplemental training to prepare them to work within the educational environment. Our Officers are an important part of a dedicated team and work closely with school staff and outside agencies to develop a safe environment for the students on campus.

We want the educational experience of every student to be a positive one. We realize that the challenges and difficulties faced by teens can be complex. We need your input and communication to better address any situations or issues that may arise. Please consider our department as a resource that can help the needs of the students, staff or our community.

I encourage you to contact us if we can be of service to you:
