County Seeking School Traffic Officer
by: Dwayne PageJan 27, 2025
The county needs a school traffic officer to fill a vacancy.
Through a longstanding agreement, the City of Smithville, DeKalb County Government, and the DeKalb School District, share in the annual cost of paying two traffic control officers in the school zones mornings and afternoons (during the school year) at Northside Elementary School and at DeKalb Middle School/DCHS. The positions pay $20 per hour. The county makes the hires.
According to County Mayor Matt Adcock, the schedule is approximately an hour and half in the morning and an hour and a half in the afternoon during school traffic hours. It is approximately 25 hours every two weeks. Payment is received bi-weekly. “The county is looking to fill the position immediately. If someone is not hired we will have one school without an officer,” said County Mayor Adcock.
