The board approved the 2025–26 SRO agreement and was told the district has hired all five requested SROs — the first time the district has filled that staffing level — with questions invited from trustees before the voice vote carried.
The Southwest Allen County Schools board approved the 2025–26 school resource officer (SRO) agreement during the meeting, and administration reported the district has hired all five SROs it requested.
Speaker 7 introduced the item, noting it was previously presented and is returning for final approval: "Included in your board packet tonight is the request for approval for the 25 26 SRO agreement," the presenter said. The presenter then reported, "we have all 5 SROs, in the district hired, and I think that's the the first time since we we requested 5." Board members asked no substantive follow-up questions on the record, the motion was made, seconded and the agreement approved by voice vote.
The approval formalizes the operational agreement for the 2025–26 school year; the transcript does not include details of the contract terms, financials or the agencies providing officers beyond the agreement language in the packet.
