Ohio County Board of Education member Grace Norton returns to the board office Monday night following a bout with COVID-19.
WHEELING The Ohio County Board of Education Monday night approved a contract to keep county-provided prevention resource officers in school buildings through the end of this school year.
The agreement achieved is expected to result in reducing the overall number of county-provided PROs from six to five, while eventually eliminating the PRO from Middle Creek Elementary School, Board of Education President David Croft explained.
The school district also has plans to reduce the overall number of deputies serving as PROs in the coming years, while hiring more from the city of Wheeling at a cheaper cost, he said.
