Big Spring board approves two additional school police officers to boost coverage
Summary
The board approved two additional school police officers—one to cover elementary campuses and a part-time substitute role—citing improved coverage and reduced overtime; the hires were funded from existing budgets and approved as personnel action items.
The Big Spring School District board voted on Sept. 15 to approve combined personnel items that included hiring two additional school police officers.
Administrators explained the personnel actions (items 9a through 9f) will give the district more flexibility to staff its five buildings and reduce overtime demands on current officers. The first hire will provide coverage primarily at an elementary campus; the second is a part-time substitute position to support after-school activities and act as a fill-in for other officers. The administration told the board funding for these positions is available in the budget categories already identified (including athletics and activities for part-time coverage). The motion to approve the personnel slate passed on voice vote as presented.
