In 2005–06, 2007–08, 2009–10, and 2015–16, schools reported on school resource officers present at their school at least once a week. The number of school resource officers includes both full- and part-time school resource officers. The number of schools with school resource officers is defined as those schools providing a non-zero response to the count of school resource officers question. |
