As a High School Security Officer, you'll help maintain a safe and positive environment for students, staff, families, and visitors.
Your responsibilities may include:
- Providing a visible and professional security presence throughout the school day.
- Conducting interior and exterior patrols based on the school's daily schedule and activities.
- Monitoring entrances, hallways, common areas, and designated exterior areas.
- Assisting with maintaining a safe environment during arrival, dismissal, lunch, and other school activities.
- Interacting professionally and respectfully with students, staff, families, and visitors.
- Observing and reporting unusual or potentially unsafe activity.
- Responding appropriately to security and safety concerns.
- Supporting school staff during challenging situations when needed.
- Completing required activity logs and incident reports.
- Following all site-specific post orders, procedures, and client requirements.
- Providing additional coverage for school events, athletic events, and other activities as requested.

We're looking for someone who is:
- 21 years of age or older, as required by the client contract.
- Female, as required by the client's contractual staffing requirements.
- Dependable, punctual, and professional.
- Approachable, respectful, and comfortable interacting with students, families, staff, and visitors.
- Alert and detail-oriented.
- Comfortable working independently and as part of a team.
- Able to conduct both interior and exterior patrols.
- Willing to work outside when required, including during inclement weather.
- Able to communicate clearly and professionally.
- Comfortable responding appropriately to challenging situations.
- Able to follow established procedures while using good judgment when circumstances change.
Security, education, customer service, military, law enforcement, or other public-facing experience is a plus, but reliability, professionalism, communication, and the right attitude matter just as much.
Required Background Checks & Training
Because this position is located in a school environment, the selected candidate must be willing to:
- Complete all required background checks and clearances.
- Complete all training mandated by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for School Security Officers.
- Maintain all required certifications, clearances, and training throughout employment.
What We Offer
- Full-time Monday–Friday schedule
- 7:15 AM–3:45 PM daytime hours
- Position follows the academic school calendar
- Opportunities for additional hours through school events, athletic events, and other client needs
- Client preference to utilize the daytime security team for additional event coverage whenever possible
- Paid PTO accrual of up to 40 hours, beginning after successful completion of the 60-day probationary period
- Capital Blue Cross employee-only benefits for employees working 30+ hours per week
- 401(k) with company matching after 1 year of employment
- Valuable experience in a professional school environment

Why This Job Matters
School security is about more than watching doors or walking hallways. It's about being a professional, approachable, and reassuring presence for students, staff, families, and visitors.

The little things matter. Your presence matters. And the right Security Officer can make a real difference in a school community.
