I was born in the US and attended public school from K-12 and it makes no sense to me either.
Montgomery County is run by intensely progressive liberals. They believe in Restorative Justice instead of Retributive Justice. And they are very anti-police. Just listen to what politicians like Jawando and Elrich have to say.
We get what we vote for and these policies heavily affects our schools and communities.
And, Jawandos kids are in private school.

Saw them at an athletic event for Sandy Spring Friends School.
Yes, this is a known fact. Jawando is too good to send his kids to MCPS. They attend an elite private that doesn't have the same issues as we regular folks do. They attend a private that you better believe wouldn't hesitate to kick out a student who is disruptive or is caught with drugs or brings a weapon. But you know, for us minions, these are ok..cuz RJ.
Seriously take a deep breath and seek therapy.

The superintendent of MCPS also had a daughter in private school in PG County last I heard.

Was hoping for a real citation, not some personal anecdote which doesn't prove anything.

It is not Montgomery County. It is pushed by DOJ and DOE threatening school districts that have a racial disparity in discipline.

This sounds like racist weapons are "affecting" black and brown students by hiding in their backpacks.
Since violence is often intraracial, poor enforecment victimizes black and brown students. Elimination of SRO's also makes teachers give more suspensions to preempt problems. Bad management hurts disadvantaged students most.
Maybe that would be true if SROs helped make schools safer, but all the data suggests they only make matters worse.
mcps data shows schools currently without SROs aren't safer.
And actually, MCPS memo prior to SRO being cut indicated that there were pros and cons to SROs, and that in some cases, SROs can be positive. But, Elrich pulled the plug before MCPS could study it more in depth.
And now we have CEO 2.0 because county council and Elrich realized, oops, school violence is out of control.. maybe we should have some cops in some cases in the schools.
At the board meeting the other week they said the exact opposite, that the incidents are down since they removed them.
Then why did they go from no SRO > CEO and now > CEO 2.0 if the violence is down?

The calls (incidents) are down but the arrests are up.
