Local SRO Carr wins national award for service, compassion, and support

MARSHALL COUNTY, Ind. -- It was announced today that Culver Community Schools Student Resource Officer (SRO) Ryleigh Carr has earned national recognition for her work with the school and the students.
The official title of the award is the National Association of School Resource Officers Regional Exceptional Service Award for Region 5, which encompasses Indiana, Missouri, Kansas, Illinois and Iowa.
According to the NASRO, the award is presented to SROs who "exemplify continuous and sustained service to the school community above and beyond that expected of a normal SRO or school staff member."
"This award stands as a testament to the difference Chief Carr made through her service, compassion, and unwavering support of the school community," the NASRO said.
School officials say Chief Carr continues to prove her commitment to not only Culver Community Schools, but the entire Culver Community.
In addition to her role as SRO, Carr is also an athletic coach and the Culver Community Athletic Boosters President.
Carr will be recognized for the award in July at the 2025 NASRO National School Safety Conference in Grapevine, Texas.
