School officers across the state turned to heavy-handed tactics on children, often in response to minor misbehavior, our investigation shows.

I think most places call them School Resource Officers (SRO) or something similar.
Just steps towards normalizing this in society. Give it another decade and the US will develop a policing branch just dedicated to school policing.
Its long past normalized here. We had one in middle school and that was in the 90s
My kids elementary school used something like “Community Resource Officer”
But is it the same, in that it is in fact police officers stationed at a school?
Yeah, it’s the same thing. I think the goal with SRO was to sound less dystopian.
I agree it sounds less dystopian. but the reality of it apparently is not.
Maybe one day USA can become a civilized country, so all this shit isn’t necessary.
