Charlottesville Schools Safety Committee recommends reform to school security plans By Max Marcilla | April 27, 2021 at 10:04 PM EDT - Updated April 27 at 11:05 PM
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (WVIR) - A Charlottesville Schools Safety Committee has formally recommended a revised safety plan to Superintendent Rosa Atkins following the decision to remove school resource officers from campuses.
The plan includes replacing SRO’s with Care & Safety Assistants (CSA’s) who will have a number of tasks, including monitoring hallways, building “prosocial” relationships with students, and helping de-escalate disputes.
If approved, city schools would hire several new staff members, including social workers.
