[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Educator who has worked in many Moco high schools- a good sro is an essential member of a school team...forming relationships with kids, having a handle on community matters, and conducting police duties as essential.  Pre-pandemic, the kids were far from okay- I can't even imagine what it's like now and without the consistent police presence.  Restorative justice is a joke- I've never seen a school implement it as designed.  Mental health services at the school are very limited in scope.  The violence is going to continue until children die...maybe they will reverse course then[/quote]

This post is on target.

[b]There were more student arrests pre-SROs than post[/b].  We 100% need them in our schools.

However, I cannot in good conscience sign anything put forth by Steve Austin, as it will not be taken seriously by those in charge.[/quote]
Really? Are trying to tell me that there were more student arrests in the 80's and early 90's?
Care to share the data?[/quote]

Not the PP but there was a ton of arrests in the 90’s. That’s when it was against the law to posses a pager on school grounds. It wasn’t a rule. It was a law. Kids were being taken out of schools in handcuffs everyday and all the arrests were generated by teachers.[/quote]
