Apparently the Staff has little if any training on properly handling pat downs or what to do if a weapon is found. Big surprise there. Stacey Collis, a retired SRO, said the training would have made an SRO ready for a situation like Wednesday’s. “They’re trained in how to do pat downs and check as kids come in, where a lot of administrators don’t have that training. And so they’re just put on the front lines and say ‘you now need to deal with this’ and they don’t have the tools to deal with that,” Collis said.

The decision was made in the wake of protests demanding changes to policing following the in-custody death of George Floyd in Minneapolis." Denver parents can thank virtu signaling school board and Saint fentanyl for the removal of School Resource Officers (SROs).
