Should Cops Be In Schools?

[@AboveTheNoise]

OK folks - we had to fix a mistake on one of our maps and re-post this video! Here is the correct version. Same question for you - have you had any experiences with School Resource Officers (SROs)? Do you think law enforcement presence makes schools safer? Share your perspectives below!

[@flymypg]

I was in high school during the early 1970s, with no police on campus. Basic order (mainly to limit bullying) was maintained by coaches and gym teachers patrolling the campus. Things like drugs were easily available, but those were also different times. But it was we, as a student body, who decided what behaviors needed to be stopped. Such as students overdosing or harming themselves or others, or cases of parental abuse. That's when an assistant principle would be informed and a police officer would be invited to the campus to help with that specific problem, and nothing else. But that was a last resort, after what today would be called "peer interventions" had failed. We took care of our own, and asked for help only when we couldn't provide it ourselves. One result was we got a friend elected student council president to work on formalizing the process and relationship, to explicitly give students a say in how the student body was treated, and some real responsibility for helping make it work. We all graduated before the changes were agreed to and put in place, but lots of progress had been made. During all that, our informal system kept on working.

I have one in my high school. I’ve never seen him do anything bias and never had any issue with him.

[@cestlavegan5793]

We need better police officers in general. Also higher quality and more thorough training. Also maybe SROs are not needed at every single school, just the ones with higher rates of violence and crime. But we really should focus on somehow helping the “problem” students in order to prevent the need for cops in schools in the first place. Kids living in broken homes need all the support they can get.

[@amysand5400]

But that would require even MORE funding for an institution that is already extremely over-funded. What we really need is accountability for cops, otherwise, they will keep doing terrible things regardless of their training because they won't ever face serious repercussions. Cops are trained a lot, but they are trained to kill. Not to deescalate or to "support" their community. The less cops interact with people in general, the better.

Nope. "When someone brings a gun to a high school..." Like what happened at the Parkland shooting where the SRO hid outside? Look man, if they want to wear the badge and carry the gun, then they don't get to run and hide when shit gets bad. They can't claim to do "the most dangerous job in America" (not true by a long shot, btw) while also saying they have a right not to put their lives at risk. You can't have it both ways, and if you're not putting your life on the line, then you don't need a gun. It's as simple as that.

[@deadreckoning4132]

I work as an SRO. I'll tell you why you get a lot of unqualified police officers in schools. A lot of times they will pick older officers for those positions that have either already retired or are close to retirement. Obviously not a Good fit for protecting children. Young cops typically don't want to be in schools because they want to be out on the street fighting crime, chasing bad guys down etc. So typically when an SRO job comes open, it's usually somebody that's older and close to retirement. The day-to-day job is a great job because you get to put on presentations for kids, you get to counsel them on behavioral issues and get them involved in sports so they can stay out of trouble. It's very rewarding. A lot of SROs over the years have stopped active shooter incidents from occurring but of course, those typically don't make the news. We hear about them during annual in-service training but trust me when I say that SROs have kept a lot of shootings from occurring in schools. I've seen it first hand.

[@nancy3939]

I had officers on my school campuses all my life. My high school had lots of fights, but not necessarily drug or gun problems. There were multiple fights a day sometimes and 6 ft 250-300 lb officers would tackle 5 ft 90 lb girls, to the ground, and cuff them only do give them an overnight. It was brutal, funny at the time because of the fact that it happened so often. it was normal. In college I went to a private school full of rich kids and telling them these stories, they were shocked. I went to a (not even that poor) public school filled with minorities. It's disproportionate, that's the only problem :/ because we had adults who would come fight teens on campus and they would protect us from them

[@AboveTheNoise]

So did you appreciate the fact that officers were at your school? Or would you have preferred them to not be there?

[@amysand5400]

@@AboveTheNoise Are you deadass...

[@SkeledroMan]

The problem right now is that the number of SROs is disproportionate to the number of instances of things they are trained to deal with. How many SROs have actually dealt with school shootings? This is why the SRO representative's argument in this video makes no sense. SROs do not have to be omnipresent in schools in order to be useful. In fact their presence and the threat of violence it brings is actively harmful to children's educations. This is why school resource officers should not be permanently stationed in schools but instead should be a part of the specialization of emergency response, which itself is a part of the restructuring, demilitarization, and accountabilization of the police. Removing SROs from schools would also play a part in dismantling the school to prison pipeline.

[@AboveTheNoise]

Totally understand where you are coming from. Your view has a lot of supporters and we tried to reflect that view in this video. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@opmoose6465]

imo having an sro at my school would have changed things alot as i feel they should be there, they should not be acting in every problem that goes down the majority of problems within schools can and should be left to the staff not the sro. In my school when police were there kids would either make sure certain things were hidden or gone. Now im not saying that would get rid of the problems but it would mitigate them. In the mind of a kid who would you rather be caught by a teacher or staff of some sort or a police officer. Kids would 10/10 rather be caught by a staff member. Having a active sro at the school would mitigate things ALOT. yet this is my opinion just wanted to share.

[@theprodigy9617]

Sro Should Stay

[@deadreckoning4132]

I disagree. I work as an SRO and we don't work that way. We very rarely charge kids unless it's an ongoing school disciplinary issue. The only time a student would be in prisoned by an SRO as if he committed a felony. And that's no different than if the student was out on the street and not in school. We are trained to work with school administrators and keep kids out of the criminal justice system. It's already overcrowded. However, you can't control what a person does and when they continuously commit crimes on school grounds, you got to step in and do what you got to do. That's not our fault. That's the individual.

I'm from the UK, and the idea of having police at schools is a completely alien concept.

[@AboveTheNoise]

Do UK schools have any type of security presence? Just curious!

[@AlisterPuddifer]

@@AboveTheNoise I cannot speak for all schools, but generally I believe not. It is the responsibility of staff members to watch out for any illegal activity. The vast majority of serious incidents are punished by detention, suspension, or expulsion, rather than imprisonment. I only know of one occasion where the police were called to the school, when a parent attempted to take their child after losing custody. However, incidents like this are rare, and we have much stricter gun control laws here, so I don't know for certain if the US could adopt a similar policy.

[@PunkHerr]

I never saw one officer in school my whole life. (I'm not living in the US) Why do other countries don't need them? (rhetorical asking)

​@@AboveTheNoise Fascinating video. I do think it would be important to step outside the US context and see why almost every other country in the world does not have police in schools, unless there is something specific that is incredibly rare (e.g. some children have to have body guards if they are offspring of politicians etc). But the idea that you would have police (let alone armed police) in a school is just completely absurd in most countries.

[@JustAnotherMe]

The idea of seeing cops in the school is somewhat disturbing, as in, maybe someone did something really wrong. But then, being NOT American, when I was in school, I would have thought the words "school shooting" means that maybe they are taking class pictures.

[@6li7ch]

Samesies. The US seems to be disproportionately susceptible to school shootings, which seems to be behind the bulk of the justification for SROs. A lot of people blame gun access for these incidents, but it may also be a good idea to redirect funds to diminish 'gun worship' - cultural ideas surrounding the acceptable use of violence as a means of problem-solving.

[@De-ti7jo]

It pretty unlikely for a school shooting to happen in America, but for other countries it's practically non-existent. That may contribute to the amount of police in schools

[@Steppin1107]

The sro at the highschool i recently graduated from was a very respectful man who conducted his job professionally. And from what I observed the black students in my school had the most and best relations with him. I (an asian american) have not felt the sense of paranoia that was described in this video, in fact I felt more secure knowing we had a trained and armed person on campus. Of course this is just one sample.

[@_APG_]

I went to one of the most dangerous high schools in California. Everyday there was a gang fight, or worse. The News never reported on anything that happened there either - radio silence. Ramping up the police force especially during lunch hours, and arresting and cracking down on the drugs and gang members really did help.

[@gregorynelson6572]

I like seeing cops in schools. When i was in high school they were cool to talk to and provided a sense of security

[@ragingturtles4558]

I say no to police officers in school, I am in high school with my special needs brother (same age as we are twins). We were at a different school for our time for 9-11th grade, from what we seen, the schools with police officers often have more problems. Once at that school during our math class, my brother was having a meltdown and was laying on the ground flapping his arms, a normal thing for him to do. This was a older teacher, and so she kept telling and almost yelling at him to "calm down and stop acting like a child,". I kept telling her that his doing this to calm down ad it not a big deal, this back and fourth went on for a good 15 minutes when she decided to call the police in the school. Keep in mind he is now just laying there spaced out. But still the police come in the class and try to grab him with out talking to anyone. My brother freaks out as he doesn't know who is touching him and he doesn't like people touching him if so. The police then pin him and arrest him. After the calling of my mom and the whole thing where she was ignored by the school district for her concern, we changed to a charter school. This school does have security, but they are not as rough and actually understand that he is autistic then crazy and knew how to actually help. Tho there has been some problems with other students, you can't really avoid that.

[@amysand5400]

Jesus. I am so sorry this happened to your brother. I also have a twin brother with special needs and my worst nightmare is what would happen if he encountered an incompetent police officer. Your story is one of many where the school district fails to support autistic kids. I don't even know how to go about addressing such a huge systemic issue. I believe if there are special needs kids in any school there should be social workers and professionals to prevent official's ignorance from further harming the child. It's tragic that most families with special needs kids who cant afford a private school for special needs kids have to put their kids in public school where resources are scarce for neurodivergent people and where most educators and officials are incompetent when it comes to supporting kids with special needs. Again, im sorry this happened to you. But know that you are an incredible person for advocating for your brother, especially during such a nightmare scenario. Your brother probably loves and appreciates you more than you can imagine.

[@philippicphilodox888]

Denver Public Schools reinstated SROs after an incident at East High School. As a condition of being permitted to attend public school, a particular student was patted down every morning by school administrators who aren't trained to do this type of work. This minor had previously been expelled from another district for gun charges and behavioral issues. During a pat down, the student produced a firearm and shot both administrators. The wounds were non fatal, and the administrators are expected to fully recover. No one else was injured during the incident. However, the student was later found dead with a self inflicted gunshot wound. There were cascading failures leading to this tragedy. Lack of SROs was not the only problem. Few resources exist to help students in this situation. Yes, we want to avoid the "school to prison pipeline," but we must also offer viable alternatives.

The more I think about how to fix the police, the more I think that the main thing we need is way more de-escalation training, SROs do make sense to me but the de-escalation training they get in a single workweek class with other topics if their specific leadership follows the recommendation can't be enough. De-escalation training should be much more of the general police training than it seems to be and to be an SRO there should be even more mandatory training like that recommended by NASRO. There are other issues but I think that is really the biggest of the issues.

Not living in the US, never seen a cop at any school, here's my POV.

But what for? Someone bringing drugs? Happened in my school twice in my whole life, I don't think it's worth having a cop 24/7 when it should not happen super frequently. Also the school's principal/psychologist or other people could solve the situation through discussion and a sanction for the student, before the situation needs to have the cops there.

Some of the most vicious, outlandish prison sentences were handed out for weed possession, etc. This didn't limit the trade or proliferation of drugs as it didn't address the main problem that lead to drug use and distribution: poverty.

Walk the school and make sure that all the doors are secure and visitors are being checked properly. Since the introduction of SROs in my state, a lot of weapons have been found, a lot of students have been charged that have made threats towards other students or towards the school in general. It's been a successful program overall. With regards to arresting students committing criminal acts, we usually leave the first offense up to the school to handle in-house as long as it's not a serious crime and then after that, we will step in and take them in front of the courts if it's a reoccurring problem.

It's funny. A few yrs ago, Elected officials were contemplating arming teachers to deal with worst case scenarios. What changed?? Lol. Lucky kids have been out of physical school due 2 COVID.

I love police. There should be one in my house. 😘😘😘😘😘

school has sure changed, when I was in school we had zero police officers. seems like a pipeline to move kids from school to jails. the very idea of kids in grade school being handcuffed seems offensive.makes me happy all mine are adults. most of my grandkids are now being homeschooled. smh I'm so happy for homeschooling.
