Board approves three-year school resource officer contract
Summary
St Clair County Schools approved a three-year contract for a school resource officer provided through the county; board members praised the officer by name and discussed limited usage needs.
St Clair County Schools’ board discussed and moved to approve a three-year contract to provide a school resource officer (SRO) through the county.
Board members said the county provides the SRO service through Jeff Feinberg and called his work “wonderful.” One board member said the county’s contract was “very favorable” and praised the officer for attending school events and building rapport with students.
“We have the Lewerth County SRO contract for the next three years,” an unidentified board member said while asking for a motion. A separate board member said, “Jeff does a wonderful job,” and several board members added that he attends activities and interacts well with students.
Board discussion noted that St Clair uses SRO services infrequently but values having the position available for conferences and when parents or students need an interpreter or other support. The board did not record any amendments to the contract in the transcript excerpt.
A motion to approve the SRO contract was made during the meeting. The transcript shows the contract was described as favorable and that Jeff Feinberg was singled out for praise; the record does not include a roll-call vote in the provided excerpt.
