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

The difference is that they’re stationed inside the school all day, every school day. They’re not there to respond to whatever emergency there is in the community, only to minor incidents inside the school, with the training to escalate violently.
Is that a typo or a joke? 🤣
Typo if you’re not understanding:
Escalating violently is what cops are trained to do. If you put a bunch of bored cops around students, who occasionally do dumb stuff, the cops will escalate violently some of the time.
