At the Dec. 17 meeting a board member said SRO agreements with municipalities were renewed and the district will add a second school resource officer to its high school, citing building size despite an overall decline in incidents.
During new business on Dec. 17, a board member said the district renewed SRO agreements with municipalities and plans to add a second school resource officer at the high school.
Mister Wilson (transcript attribution) said the district’s incident rate has declined this year and credited administrators and a new policy for that trend, but added that the size and population of the high school justify adding another SRO. He said the officers are "there to protect our students." No contract details, costs, or implementation timeline for the additional SRO were provided in the transcript.
Board members voiced support for the renewal and the additional officer; the meeting did not record a formal motion or vote on adding the second SRO during this session.
What’s next: The addition was discussed as part of new business; any formal agreement, budget allocation or contract will require subsequent board action.
