School resource officers in Public Schools have a specific job that differs in some ways from the role of a regular police officer.

Five years after the decades-old program was paused, Santa Rosa City Schools and city officials have a draft agreement that would return police officers to campuses in Sonoma County’s largest school district.

Santa Rosa school leaders want to bring police officers on high school campuses. There have been several problems, including stabbings, drug overdoses and wapons. It could cost $1.8 million to bring the officers back.
