The head of the National Association of School Resource Officers is talking about the role of SROs in schools before and after a crisis.
Mo Canady says they’re trained to understand the adolescent brain, special needs students and school law.
He says when an attack happens at a school it can have a lasting impact and an SRO can become a counselor.
After yesterday’s incident in Oshkosh and Monday’s school incident in Waukesha, area school administrators are talking with staff and sending letters home to families to talk about safety and stress that everyone plays a role.
