There are tons of literature and data about Montgomery County SROs that say otherwise.  And why would it be a bad thing to provide principals with resources who can actually help them? Why would you take that away? Aren't we supposed to support Principals so that they can effectively run their schools and provide a safe environment for students and staff?[/quote]

There are studies about the effectiveness of SROs in Montgomery County? I haven't seen any, could you link to them please?[/quote]
MoCo won't do that because the results would go against their progressive objectives.

The BOE attempted to study it, but Elrich moved forward with removing SROs before the study could be completed.   The numbers don't like.  There has been an uptick in violence.

So are there studies, or aren't there?[/quote]
did you read the article?

They probably do but don't want to publicize it since it would go against the progressive agenda.[/quote]

So, there are studies that show that SROs in Montgomery County are effective, but they are secret studies? Amazing. I learn something new on DCUM every day![/quote]
Yes, dcum is great for getting the word out, especially with MCPS because they prefer to hide the issues.

If you read the MCPS forum there are no less than four or five incidents in the past month that lead to a lockdown and/or incident with weapons.[/quote]

DCUM is neither secret, nor a study.[/quote]
But it doesn't try to hide information unlike MCPS.

Like I said, MCPS tried to study it, but Elrich pulled the plug before they could conclude the study.

Principals wanted SROs.  They ware the ones in the hallways with the kids. Not Elrich or the County Council.[/quote]

Not sure where you get these ideas from but I've bound MCPS to be very open and communicative. If anything, I'd prefer fewer emails and texts.[/quote]
