ACLU Says Police Officers in Schools Need Guidelines.

The article discusses the paper "Policing in Schools: Developing a Governance Document for School Resource Officers in K-12 Schools," from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which argues that schools need a formal governing document for school resource officers (SRO). It is suggested that without a document SROs might not understand their role in the larger educational context. The paper can be found at the ACLU's web site located at www.aclu.org/racialjustice/edu/40816pub20090824.html.
