Since the tragic death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police on Memorial Day, protestors and policymakers have been calling for reform to, and in some cases the defunding of, police departments around the country. Though Floyd's death is unrelated to K-12 schools, the Minneapolis Board of Education has severed its contract with city police, which had provided school resource officers (SROs) to area schools. Disbanding the use of SROs in local schools is a risky proposition. Instead of removing all SROs, local school districts and police departments should employ officer training programs specifically for SROs, as policing in a school environment is inherently different from street policing. Ultimately, the most effective way to protect students is to allow parents to report dangerous schools and move their children to safer learning environments. At the same time, school officials' responsibility to keep the students in their care safe remains, which makes training for these officers of critical importance.
