Derek Johnson

Officer Derek Johnson

Assigned to: Davies High School

Contact Information: 701-446-5624

How long have you been a police officer?

I have been a Fargo police officer for 10 years; this is my first year as an SRO.

Why did you become an SRO?

I became an SRO to take on a new challenge and the opportunity to connect and hopefully have a positive influence on young people. I am also excited about being able to build good working relationships with students, parents, and school staff.

What is your training and education?

I graduated from Fargo South High School and joined the U.S. Army. After my military service, I attended South Dakota State University and earned a degree in Biology. While working for the Fargo Police, I was a Field Training Officer for new recruits, a Crime Scene Investigator, and I am currently the only Certified Bomb Technician in the department.
