[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm astonished by the Council's decision to pull SROs. Just does not make sense. There are potential safety issues any place with large groups of people. What are teachers and admin supposed to do when there's a massive fight or one kid pulls a knife on another? Wouldn't it be better to have an onsite SRO who knows the school and kids versus calling MPD to arrive 20 minutes later? I get the concerns about police in schools. But lots of intermediate action that could have been taken -- better, trauma-informed training, SROs don't wear police uniforms or carry their weapons, etc. Good thing is that this will not take effect until 2025 so we have three more budget cycles to reverse it.[/quote] I'm writing to my council person. Common sense is not being used.[/quote]
