Yes, they will say that they made changes. They will probably call it something else. But police will be back starting today. It only took a kid in critical condition and a gun at another high school for them to see that there’s a need.
How is this going to help? Anytime there's been an active shooter more often than not the SRO is nowhere to be found. I think the SRO at Parkland even ran away.
Stop talking about the one example in Parkland that you can think of to vilify SROs. Plenty of examples where an SRO has stopped violence - before it happens and during. An SRO stopped a Clarksburg student from using the gun that was in his backpack.

I am not a Trumpie, but I do believe that schools need to feel safe which they don't right now.
It's too bad. Most are rightly more afraid of the police than each other.
So what is your solution? Hug it out?
Most people in this area have no reason to be scared of the police unless they are doing something wrong. And if they are doing something wrong, I would much rather a police officer trained in adolescents be there to help the situation rather than an administration who has no idea what to do. Safety needs to come before personal feelings in school.
I have always believed this. People protesting SROs are only doing it because their kids are trouble makers and they do not want them punished.

source ? But if true..👏
Last night my DD was saying that she feels safer with SROs. When there was that dumb bomb threat from a tiktok challenge, and there were cops around the schools, DD said she felt safer. Initially, when she heard about the bomb threat, she was scared to go to school, but seeing the cops calmed her a bit. After what happened at MHS, DD said she wants SROs back.
