School districts in the state of Connecticut have continued to make decisions surrounding whether school resource officers (SROs) have a place in their schools. Two previous studies, research from 2008 (ACLU) and 2019 (Hudson et al.) highlight outcomes associated with SROs, but little research is available unpacking the roles and responsibilities that make up the role. Considering how under-researched the position is and using Lipsky’s Street-Level Bureaucracy (2010) as a framework to understand the SRO’s complicated role as public servants, this quantitative study investigates what a school resource officer is and the expectations, roles, and responsibilities of the position. The research questions driving this study are: (1) What is the role of a Connecticut School Resource Officer? (2) What are the expectations and responsibilities of a Connecticut School Resource Officer? Inspired by the works of Ghavami et al. (2021), Fisher and Devlin (2020), and Kelly and Swezey (2015), this study uses survey research methods to collect data regarding the roles, responsibilities, and expectations of SROs from both building-level high school administrators and SROs in Connecticut. Survey questions were adapted from the 2019-2020 National Center for Education Studies School Survey on Crime and Safety, and Kelley and Swezey. Descriptive statistical methods were used to analyze the data and findings were categorized based on the TRIAD Model (teaching, mentoring, law enforcement) developed by the National Organization of School Resource Officers. Findings show the role of SROs in Connecticut public high schools who participated in this study mostly align with the TRIAD model despite a lack of policy or written documents detailing their roles and responsibilities. Suggestions for future research and recommendations for practitioners are provided.

Schools have a mission of great importance to our nation; they are responsible for keeping our children safe while educating them and helping prepare them to be responsible and productive citizens. The December 14, 2012, shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT, that claimed the lives of 20 children and 6 adults, has heightened congressional interest in school security. Policymakers have begun debating whether school security can be further enhanced, and if so, how best to accomplish that goal. A wide variety of proposals have been offered at the federal level, such as funding for expanded mental health services for students, funding for training on mental health awareness for school staff, funding to assist schools in improving school climate, funding for more school counselors, and funding for more school resource officers (SROs) or other armed security personnel. Wayne LaPierre, Executive Vice President and CEO of the National Rifle Association, has proposed putting an armed police officer in every school in the country as a way to prevent mass shootings. President Obama has proposed creating incentives for Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) grants to be used to hire more SROs in the current year. In addition, he has requested $150 million in funding for a new Comprehensive School Safety Program. This new grant program would provide school districts and law enforcement agencies with funding to hire new SROs and school psychologists, among other things. This book focuses on one of these proposals, the renewed focus on providing federal funding for more SROs as a means to preventing school shootings. It examines the distribution of and current number of SROs, the potential sustainability of any increase in the number of SROs, and the effect that SROs may have on students and the academic setting. It also examines what available research studies suggest about the extent to which SROs may reduce school violence. These are issues Congress may consider while contemplating an expansion of SRO programs.

Police departments across the country have begun to embrace a new approach to law enforcement based on accountability to citizens, better leadership, and collaboration with the communities they serve. Standing in marked contrast to “Ashcroft policing,” these new strategies are exactly what police need both to make the streets of our cities and towns safer, and to prevent terrorism. David Harris, law professor and nationally known expert on police profiling, has spent the last five years visiting police forces across the country, collecting examples of smart, progressive law enforcement. Drawing on successful strategies currently in use in Detroit, Boston, San Diego, and other cities and towns all over the country, all of which have reduced crime without infringing on civil rights, Harris here unveils the concept of “preventive policing,” a term he has coined to meld these strategies into a new vision for good cops. From preventive policing’s founding principles to its real-world applications, Harris shows that the solutions to reducing crime, fighting terror, and preserving civil liberties are within reach—if only the Department of Justice will listen.
