SROs at OSD

School safety, and specifically SROs (Student Resource Officers) has been a big topic of discussion in our area recently. OSD (Olympia School District) cancelled their longstanding contract with OPD to provide SROs in June 2020. Requests from the community to re-instate this contract has fallen on deaf ears. Over the first week of the 2023-2024 school year at CHS (Capital High School) there was almost a constant police presence on campus with two lock downs, two separate gun arrests, and at least one assault. These events motivated me to un-enroll my daughter from CHS and transfer her to THS (Tumwater High School) and inspired many community members to speak out at OSD Board Meetings requesting the re-instatement of SROs on OSD campuses.

Below are a few videos of my appearances on King 5 News, FOX13 News, and an OSD Board Meeting supporting the re-instatement of SRO's at OSD.
