Menahga School won’t seek COPS Grant
Considered about the financial commitment, the Menahga School Board declined to co-author a COPS Grant application with the city of Menahga. 7:37 pm, May 25, 2021 ×
They discussed the matter at their May 17 meeting.
Superintendent Kevin Wellen reported that Menahga Police Chief Adam Gunderson inquired about seeking funds for a school resource officer (SRO). It would be a financial commitment for the school district, Wellen said, at roughly 25 percent of the individual’s salary and benefits over four years. He estimated the annual cost to the district at $25,000 to $30,000.
SROs are a bit controversial, Wellen noted. If the district isn’t interested in an SRO, Gunderson plans to apply for a community police officer.

I know it sounds strange, but we don t know where they went.â
