An ordinance is before Council to authorize an agreement between the City of Washington and the Washington School District for the assignment of three School Resource Officers (SROs) to the District’s schools. While the full PDF of the agreement is truncated in the provided excerpt, the ordinance language makes clear that the District will pay the City for these services and that the officers will be assigned to duty for the school district, expanding or continuing a multi‑officer SRO model in public schools. This agreement shows the District’s significant, recurring investment in on‑campus law enforcement presence and the City’s capacity to staff and manage three SRO positions.Vendors in school security technology, visitor management, emergency communications, SRO training curricula, and student threat‑assessment/behavioral intervention platforms can leverage this as evidence of demand and budget for school safety solutions that complement the SRO program and improve coordination between the District and Police Department.

Agreement complements a separate SRO contract with local parochial schools, indicating a broad citywide SRO footprint across public and private education.
