A district-wide survey revealed 82% of its 13,000 respondents think SROs are important or very important to maintaining a safe learning environment.

GET 'EM WITH THE RECEIPTS AND THE FACTS!
Montgomery County is the only county in the state of Maryland to do away with SROs by the way.
Sounds like MoCo is the only county looking at actual data then since SROs are notoriously ineffective.
Exactly, since every credible study concludes that they almost never improve matters and more often subject kids to greater risk.
MCPS used data that showed SROs can help reduce violent crime in schools.
Oh no, it was the exact opposite. That's why they got rid of them.

oh no, they showed studies that showed it was effective in some districts, but MCPS never got to complete their own study because Elrich pulled the plug. It's been discussed numerous times. Google it.

Please show me the data that SROs are ineffective at MCPS. I'll be waiting.
Show me data that says they are. I know for a fact they were present at almost every mass shooting like Parkland and Uvalde. Seems like a bad track record.
I will send you ACTUAL MCPS data unlike your nonstop reference to mass shootings that didn't even take place here.
I still don't know whether there is or isn't actual MCPS data. Some posts say there is, some posts say there would have been but the study was nefariously stopped, some posts say there isn't.

This is so true. Do you know a MCPS school is not mandated to contact the police when there is a rape on campus? Right now schools are barely contacting police for things police should be contacted for.
Interesting question. CPS mandatory reporting could be involved. Title IX gets involved. But MCPS is explicitly not a crime fighting agency.
Statistically, SROs rarely of any benefit. Both Parkland and Uvalde had SROs present and that didn't help matters.
Most experts believe they actually make things worse, and their presence escalates or increases the death toll.
I know. It's easy to understand if you look at facts like this that they don't work. I think some people just want to make public schools into prisons.
Some people have a lot of faith in the effectiveness of punishment. (I am not one of those people.)

Do you know of any kids who feel MCPS administration don't care about their safety and wellbeing and do nothing to curb or stop the bad behavior that disrupts their educational experience routinely? I do.
So you don’t. Open shut.

Because the 100 other posts about how it’s ineffective you can’t read?
