Albany public school students will no longer be greeted by police officers on the first day of school after some students and their families expressed fear and anxiety because of the officersâ presence last week.
Rumors circulating on social media prompted Melissa Goff, superintendent of Greater Albany Public Schools, to release a statement Wednesday addressing the district s decision to discontinue the tradition. Goff said the lack of officers assigned to campuses, often called school resource officers or SROs, is unrelated to the decision and was a result of shortfalls in Albany s city budget and staffing challenges in the Albany Police Department.
