Summary

"The initial evaluation of the School Resource Officer Program focussed on measuring related perceptions of students, teachers/administrators, parents and SROs in those schools where a School Resource Officer was assigned. The evaluation also included an analysis of crimes and victimization in and around schools, and a review of the activities of the School Resource Officers. The follow-up evaluation used essentially the same surveys as were used at the end of the 2009 school year; the only difference was that the surveys were now completed on-line."--Executive Summary.
