October 12, 2021
Meet Our School Resource Officer, Technology Support, and After School Staff
Officer Chad Cowart - School Resource Officer
Chad enjoys woodworking, fishing, and collecting coins.
This is Chad's 3rd year at Northside, and he says he loves the family feel of the staff.
Why does Chad love being a School Resource Officer? I love being a school resource officer because I get to experience a lot of rewards, from building relationships to being part of a team and a process that creates a positive environment for our students and staff. One of my favorite parts of being an SRO is being able to develop positive relationships with the students, teachers, administrators, and parents while providing students and staff with the safe learning environment they require and deserve. Being an SRO at Northside has made me feel like I have become a part of the school instead of just a deputy in the school system. This is truly one of the best jobs in law enforcement, and I am honored to be here!

David enjoys following UGA football (Go Dawgs!), reading, and watching movies.
This is David's first year at Northside, and he says he enjoys all of the happy, smiling faces everywhere!
Why does David love providing technology support for our school? I love supporting those who are dedicated to teaching and caring for our future.
