School Resource Officers Congress
SRO Congress provides research-based educational opportunities that will better prepare everyone associated with an SRO program to lead school-based policing into the future.
Presentations and Panel Discussions Include:
- Selection, Training, and Retention of SROs
This should include information on selecting officers with the temperament, desire, and disposition to be SROs. Not all police officers will make good SROs. Additionally, standardizing training for specific school-based instructions (IEP, 504, special education, code of conduct, social, emotional learning, and student support, so on…) along with special law enforcement training would increase the chance of a successful program. Finally, the retention of SROs is seldom discussed. SROs are usually on the move from the first bell to the last. Their evenings are filled with after school and community events, and their summers with youth camps. All the while, they are parents, community members, and humans. Burnout can be an issue. Retaining great SROs requires a discussion.
- The Role of the SRO
Using the foundational “triad model,” successful SROs understand the myriad of roles they fill, from counselor or friend to crisis responder to the teacher. SROs need to understand the boundaries of their position. When does a code of conduct violation become a criminal issue where their presence could be necessary? Do all physical altercations require formal criminal charges? The answers to these questions need to be clearly defined through discussion and scenario-based training.
- Understanding What a Comprehensive School Security Plan Looks Like
Far too many school systems have placed school security under facilities or operations, assigning a former teacher or administrator with no experience in security to manage and build plans. As a result, in many cases, SROs are viewed as the leaders for school safety. A comprehensive school security program includes the presence of an SRO; however, they are not sole provider of security. School security includes policies, processes, protocols, technology, access control, staff hiring and retention, reunification, training, exercising, discipline processes, and many other things that fall outside the expertise of a SRO. SROs should help build the system, but they must guard against being the system.
- Effective Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Writing
An SRO program’s success is based on a shared understanding of the role, responsibility, and expectations. Proactive and living MOUs are essential frameworks. Police executives, SROs, and school officials need to understand how to come to the table and author comprehensive MOUs that balance the entities’ needs and the desires of the communities they serve.
- Technology Overviews
SROs need to have a basic understanding of the available technology, how it works, and how it may integrate into the security enterprise that the school system currently has. SROs need to have a basic understanding of the pro and cons, along with the operations of camera systems, weapons detection systems, visitor management systems, communication equipment, documentation software, and other available hardware items. The ability to ask the correct questions is vital.
- Incident Command and Crisis Response
The mass shooting in Uvalde illustrated the tragic outcome that results from ineffective incident command and crisis response. SROs and police executives must be challenged to understand the failures that have repeatedly occurred during critical events across the United States. Law enforcement struggles to understand and utilize a basic incident command structure and employ unified command. Sessions should be offered on crisis leadership, establishing unified command, crisis communication with the public, and how to conduct reviews and learn from other tragedies.
- Exercise and Tabletop Design
Preparation and practice in a safe environment is the best way to prepare for critical events. SROs and police executives must understand how to build and facilitate exercises and tabletop programs. Far too often, exercises become too elaborate and complicated, thus limiting their effectiveness and reducing participation. Adequate exercise and tabletop design should not be overwhelming and can be simple. However, officers must be trained to create and deliver high-quality exercises and tabletops.
- Proactive Policymaking
Keeping an open dialogue with all stakeholders, including the community and student groups, is imperative to sustaining a successful SRO program. Far too often, change comes at the hands of legislation. Police executives must engage in strategic thinking and make necessary adjustments before politicians become involved. This type of proactivity maintains support for programs even when mishaps occur.
- Use of Analytics, Data, and Intelligence to Improve School Safety
A comprehensive school safety plan is multi-faceted and must be supported by data. The ability to interpret and discuss data is imperative for establishing evidence-based solutions. SROs and police executives need the analytics skills to vet raw data and turn it into usable intelligence that allows them to proactive.
- Learning from After Action Reviews
After Action Reviews (AAR) are an integral part of learning. SROs and law enforcement executives need to understand the importance of these documents and know how to digest the information, bringing the information back to their agency and learning from it. Why did the events happen as they did? How will we avoid the same pitfalls? How do we have courageous conversations with their leadership and subordinates to ensure the same mistakes are not repeated? After Action Reports of critical events like the reports that were just released from the Robb Elementary School shooting should be mandatory reading for all police officers.
Why?
Leading a successful SRO program in 2022 is highly complicated. Leading an SRO program from 2023 to 2030 will grow increasingly complex. Balancing the whiplash of politics, advocacy groups, and the endless line of “experts” will challenge even the best of SROs and police executives. SyllabusX would serve the community well by offering an SRO Congress that provides research-based educational opportunities that will better prepare everyone associated with an SRO program to lead school-based policing into the future.
