[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you don't want SRO's what is  your solution to  what is going on in the schools? I want my kids safe.[/quote]

Yeah, I want my kids safe, too. This response illustrates the problem. It feels intolerable to do nothing and so we want to rush to do Something, even if that Something has been proven to be worse than doing nothing. There is not an easy answer to this and that is the horrible truth. I'm not advocating giving up but soothing our anxieties with knee jerk solutions is not the way forward.[/quote]
Again, we can have both.. SROs and more mental health professionals.  Indeed, there are no easy answers, but that doesn't mean we should do nothing but ponder the issue.

MCPS hasn't been able to fill the many open spots we have for mental health professionals.

Judging by how so many therapists have a long wait list, I doubt MCPS will be able to fill all the positions.

And we definitely shouldn't lower the standards and just hire a warm body to fill it.[/quote]
