School safety and student support

Which measures would help residents judge whether the SRO program supports safety, attendance and student trust?

F3 identifies a lack of standardized metrics; R3 lists attendance, referrals, incident data and school climate. Discussion can explore which measures are useful and how to interpret them without treating a count as proof of success.

Why this matters

Evaluation should make program goals visible rather than relying only on general impressions.
