Many schools have "school resource officers." Generally, they quickly become tools to oppress students on behalf of the administration, especially if they are minority students.

I got caught with rolling papers for weed at school when I was maybe 14 or 15. The dean of students tried to threaten me with the police. I was a shithead, and told him that rolling papers aren't illegal, so he can call the cops all he wants. Teachers definitely use the cops to try to scare kids.
