Book Synopsis Police in Schools by : Linda Duxbury
Download or read book Police in Schools written by Linda Duxbury and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-23 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This co-authored book critically reviews existing literature on school resource officer (SRO) programs and presents a thorough evaluation of an SRO program offered by Peel Regional Police in Ontario, Canada. The implementation of a school resource officer (SRO) program is a controversial response to school violence and safety issues. While some call for an increased use of police in schools, others are pushing to remove police from schools, or at least to end their involvement in routine discipline. Though many SRO programs exist around the world, little systematic research has been conducted on the topic. The study reported in this book represents the largest and most comprehensive assessment of such programs to date. The research by Duxbury and Bennell indicates that SRO programs can provide real value for students, school staff, policing organizations, and society, but benefits rely on having programs that are well-designed, that the right officers are selected for SRO roles, and that the initiative has support from major stakeholders. Given the current conversations regarding the costs and benefits of having police officers in schools, there is a clear need to determine the value that investment in these types of proactive policing programs creates. The book provides researchers, SROs, police agencies, school boards, school administrators, teachers, parents, and students with information about: the activities that SROs are involved in, how SROs can collaborate with schools to create safe learning environments, and whether (and how) such programs benefit the police, schools, students, and society. Easy-to-digest charts facilitate understanding, and anonymized reflections from SROs, school staff, and students are presented throughout the book to provide context"--

Book Synopsis What is a Connecticut School Resource Officer? by : Even F. Krawiec
Download or read book What is a Connecticut School Resource Officer? written by Even F. Krawiec and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: School districts in the state of Connecticut have continued to make decisions surrounding whether school resource officers (SROs) have a place in their schools. Two previous studies, research from 2008 (ACLU) and 2019 (Hudson et al.) highlight outcomes associated with SROs, but little research is available unpacking the roles and responsibilities that make up the role. Considering how under-researched the position is and using Lipsky’s Street-Level Bureaucracy (2010) as a framework to understand the SRO’s complicated role as public servants, this quantitative study investigates what a school resource officer is and the expectations, roles, and responsibilities of the position. The research questions driving this study are: (1) What is the role of a Connecticut School Resource Officer? (2) What are the expectations and responsibilities of a Connecticut School Resource Officer? Inspired by the works of Ghavami et al. (2021), Fisher and Devlin (2020), and Kelly and Swezey (2015), this study uses survey research methods to collect data regarding the roles, responsibilities, and expectations of SROs from both building-level high school administrators and SROs in Connecticut. Survey questions were adapted from the 2019-2020 National Center for Education Studies School Survey on Crime and Safety, and Kelley and Swezey. Descriptive statistical methods were used to analyze the data and findings were categorized based on the TRIAD Model (teaching, mentoring, law enforcement) developed by the National Organization of School Resource Officers. Findings show the role of SROs in Connecticut public high schools who participated in this study mostly align with the TRIAD model despite a lack of policy or written documents detailing their roles and responsibilities. Suggestions for future research and recommendations for practitioners are provided.

This book was released on 2021-09-24 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Different areas of inquiry have addressed the tragedy of school shootings and their deeply disruptive impacts upon school culture, classrooms, and student learning in this contemporary moment. Therefore, it is important to bring together interdisciplinary research on the long-term impacts of these events on students, teachers, and communities. In an age where arming classroom teachers is a serious policy initiative, there is a question of how a culture of fear manifests itself in those involved in school systems. There is a need to study these effects and implications in a time where violence and school shootings appear to have become more common than ever before. Hence, there is a need for diverse perspectives in this area of complex and urgent inquiry. Impact of School Shootings on Classroom Culture, Curriculum, and Learning explores the manifestations of the threat of school shootings and the aftermath of such tragic events through an interdisciplinary approach including but not limited to inquiries from educational psychology, sociology, educational philosophy, school leadership, and school culture with a view towards understanding the enduring and obscured effects of school shootings beyond the prevailing emphasis on facility safety and security. While chapters highlight topics such as resilience and recovery, school culture, sociology of schools, leadership and school regulation, and many more areas of interest, this book is ideal for educational leaders and administrators, classroom teachers, counselors, therapists, psychologists, school division trustees, law enforcement, policymakers, researchers, academicians, and students looking for the impacts and aftermath of school shootings on all aspects of education.
Book Synopsis Global Perspectives on Reforming the Criminal Justice System by : Pittaro, Michael
Download or read book Global Perspectives on Reforming the Criminal Justice System written by Pittaro, Michael and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-06-25 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The often-tenuous relationship between law enforcement and communities of color, namely African Americans, has grown increasingly strained, and the call for justice has once again ignited the demand for criminal justice reform. Rebuilding the trust between the police and the citizens that they have sworn to protect and serve requires that criminal justice practitioners and educators collaborate with elected officials and commit to an open, ongoing dialogue on the most challenging issues that remain unresolved but demand collective attention and support. Reform measures are not limited to policing policies and practices, but rather extend throughout the criminal justice system. There is no denying that the criminal justice system as we know it is flawed, but not beyond repair. Global Perspectives on Reforming the Criminal Justice System provides in-depth and current research about the criminal justice system around the world, its many inadequacies, and why it urgently needs reformation. Offering a fully fleshed outline of the current system, this book details the newest research and is incredibly important to fully understand the flaws of the criminal justice system across the globe. The goals of this book are to improve and advance the criminal justice system by addressing the glaring weaknesses within the system and discuss potential reforms including decreasing the prison population (decarceration) and improving police/community relations. Highlighting topics that include accountability, community-oriented policing, ethics, and mass incarceration, this book is ideal for law enforcement officers, trainers/educators, government officials, policymakers, correctional officers, court officials, professionals, researchers, academicians, and students in the fields of criminal justice, criminology, sociology, psychology, addictions, mental health, social work, public policy, and public administration.

Download or read book Schools and Delinquency written by Denise C. Gottfredson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2000-11-20 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Schools and Delinquency, first published in 2001, provides a comprehensive review and critique of the current research about the causes of delinquency, substance use, drop-out, and truancy, and the role of the school in preventing these behavior patterns. Examining school-based prevention programs and practices for grades K-12, Denise Gottfredson identifies a broad array of effective strategies improving the school environment, as well as some that specifically target youths at risk of developing problem behaviors. She also explains why several popular school-based prevention strategies are ineffective and should be abandoned. Gottfredson analyzes, within the larger context of the community, the special challenges to effective prevention programming that arise in disorganized settings, identifying ways to overcome these obstacles and to make the most troubled schools safer and more productive environments.
Book Synopsis School Resource Officers by : Andrew O'Murphy
Download or read book School Resource Officers written by Andrew O'Murphy and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Schools have a mission of great importance to our nation; they are responsible for keeping our children safe while educating them and helping prepare them to be responsible and productive citizens. The December 14, 2012, shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT, that claimed the lives of 20 children and 6 adults, has heightened congressional interest in school security. Policymakers have begun debating whether school security can be further enhanced, and if so, how best to accomplish that goal. A wide variety of proposals have been offered at the federal level, such as funding for expanded mental health services for students, funding for training on mental health awareness for school staff, funding to assist schools in improving school climate, funding for more school counselors, and funding for more school resource officers (SROs) or other armed security personnel. Wayne LaPierre, Executive Vice President and CEO of the National Rifle Association, has proposed putting an armed police officer in every school in the country as a way to prevent mass shootings. President Obama has proposed creating incentives for Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) grants to be used to hire more SROs in the current year. In addition, he has requested $150 million in funding for a new Comprehensive School Safety Program. This new grant program would provide school districts and law enforcement agencies with funding to hire new SROs and school psychologists, among other things. This book focuses on one of these proposals, the renewed focus on providing federal funding for more SROs as a means to preventing school shootings. It examines the distribution of and current number of SROs, the potential sustainability of any increase in the number of SROs, and the effect that SROs may have on students and the academic setting. It also examines what available research studies suggest about the extent to which SROs may reduce school violence. These are issues Congress may consider while contemplating an expansion of SRO programs.

Book Synopsis National Assessment of School Resource Officer Programs by : Jack McDevitt
Download or read book National Assessment of School Resource Officer Programs written by Jack McDevitt and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this report, School Resource Officer (SRO) programs in four school districts are examined. The study was primarily concerned with what variables affect students' comfort level in reporting crimes to the SRO, and their perceptions of safety. The analysis was driven by data obtained through surveys of 907 students. Using these data, seven research questions were addressed: (1) Does frequency of interactions between students and SROs affect students' perception of safety? (2) Do positive opinions of the SRO affect students' perception of safety? (3) Is there a relationship between environmental factors such as neighborhood crime or past victimization and students' perception of safety? (4) Does frequency of interactions between students and SRO increase their comfort to report crimes to the SRO? (5) Does having a positive opinion of the SRO increase students' comfort level reporting crimes? (6) Do environmental factors or other variables negate the effects of interactions, positive opinions, or comfort reporting? and (7) Does being comfortable reporting crimes to the SRO affect students' perception of safety? Through univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analysis the authors were able to conclude that several factors are associated with students' comfort reporting crimes to SROs and their perceptions of safety in schools. Student Survey Questionnaire is appended.
