[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Disagree. The point of having a SRO at each school is to help eliminate the need for random MoCo officers to be called in situations like the one involving this child. Obviously, there were multiple opportunities that school personnel could have responded differently leading up to this point to try and prevent the escalation that they felt necessitated police being called; however, if there was a SRO officer at this school, who was TRAINED IN DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE CRISIS MANAGEMENT, that was familiar with the students and admin at the school, I think there would have been a much better outcome. While we would like for all police officers to be trained in best practices, if that’s not possible, let’s start with adding more training for school SRO. I think this also illustrates the importance of doubling (or quadrupling) the funding for school counselors. Many schools only have one counselor and it is impossible to even scratch the surface of addressing the students needs. [/quote]

You're saying that we need to have police officers in elementary schools to prevent the possibility of police officers abusing five-year-olds who ran off.[/quote]
