Tell Charlottesville School Board to Rethink and Revote on SRO’s in schools

Should police return to Charlottesville schools without community input?

Prior to the recent election of its newest members, our School Board voted 4–2 to return armed police to school campuses:

  • Before hearing full community input
  • Without presenting data explaining why schools cannot be managed without police
  • Without a finalized agreement with the Charlottesville Police Department
  • Without presenting restorative alternatives to school policing
  • Without considering the impact of SROs on our most vulnerable students

Community members were promised that the decision on SROs would wait until public voices could be meaningfully considered.

Fill out the form below to send an email to the Charlottesville City School Board and ask them to rethink and revote on allowing police in our schools.
