Working as it should. Way better than SRO.

The only thing the CEO program is better at is making progressives feel good about themselves.

How is that, exactly?

With the former SRO model, SROs were members of the community. They got to know the students, and they were able to form positive relationships with students. (And before you hit with the “school to prison pipeline” argument, SROs initiated 9 arrests in a system of 160,000 students in their last year. Just 9. I don’t think a .00005% arrest rate is much of a pipeline, especially when such arrests are truly warranted.)

CEOs exist outside the school community. For all the calls for positive community policing, I find it fascinating that we don’t want that model for our children and teenagers.

This is a lie and i'm not sure why people keep spreading it.

Not a lie:

Want to point to data that shows your MCPS prison pipeline? I’d love to see it.

“In the 2019-2020 School Year, the SROs charged 269 students, a combination of physical and paper arrests. A School Resource Officers primary focus is to maintain a safe learning environment for all and act as a bridge to establish positive relations with students within the school system. If an SRO observes illegal behavior, it is incumbent to immediately address the situation, especially violent or dangerous actions. It is only a small percentage of total arrests by SROs that were initiated by the SRO. In fact, of the 269 incidents, only nine were self- initiated by the SROs themselves.”

Not a chance. Student safety is the county’s responsibility. Right now, measures need to be stepped up.
