Can you ask your friends to sign our petition? If you know someone concerned about equity and SROs, share this fact-based editorial co-authored by parents and leaders from our black communities that appeared in both The Skanner and The Portland Tribune this week: Reinstate School Resource Officers in Portland Public Schools

PPS is hemorrhaging students. Where is the equity in students leaving for private schools? You will find SROs in neighboring school districts who keep children safe and schools that don't make headline news with violence like PPS. Make no mistake, school safety retains a diverse student body, staff and funding.

Together our growing coalition is changing the conversation, one signature at a time. We need your help reaching 1,000 signatures!
