Within the past year, several\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fox43.com\/2019\/07\/30\/former-downingtown-west-hs-resource-officer-arrested-accused-of-having-relationship-with-student\/\">other school resource officers<\/a>\u00a0have been arrested or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/whnt.com\/2019\/02\/12\/former-madison-county-school-resource-officer-pleads-guilty-to-sodomy\/\">convicted of sexual misconduct<\/a>\u00a0with students.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is this kind of sexual misconduct appears to be relatively rare.<\/p>\n<p>Still, with police officers now present in about\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nces.ed.gov\/pubs2018\/2018036.pdf\">half of schools nationwide<\/a>, incidents like these raise a number of questions. Just how common are cases of sexual misconduct by school resource officers? And what can be done to prevent incidents in the future?<\/p>\n<p>As an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/scholar.google.com\/citations?user=MTcxlxMAAAAJ&amp;hl=en\">educational researcher<\/a>\u00a0who studies school resource officers and school safety, here are my observations regarding these pressing questions.<\/p>\n<h4>Prevalence of the problem<\/h4>\n<p>According to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full\/10.1177\/2158244014521821\">research<\/a>\u00a0by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgsu.edu\/arts-and-sciences\/center-for-family-demographic-research\/about-cfdr\/research-affiliates\/philip-stinson.html\">Philip Stinson<\/a>\u00a0using the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/policecrime.bgsu.edu\/\">Henry A. Wallace Police Crime Database<\/a>, there were 32 arrests of school resource officers between 2005 and 2011 for sexual misconduct. Over half (56%) of these incidents occurred with students in the officers\u2019 own schools.<\/p>\n<p>This amounts to fewer than five arrests of school resource officers per year for sexual misconduct out of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nces.ed.gov\/pubs2018\/2018036.pdf\">more than 30,000 public schools that had police present<\/a>\u00a0at least part time during this period.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, research has shown that most acts of sexual misconduct\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/10391513\">go unreported<\/a>.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www2.ed.gov\/rschstat\/research\/pubs\/misconductreview\/report.pdf\">Prior research<\/a>\u00a0finds that about 10% of students experience sexual misconduct from school personnel at some point in their educational career. This suggests that, while still not the norm, the arrest rate of school resource officers may underestimate the true scope of the problem.<\/p>\n<h4>Relationship-building with students<\/h4>\n<p>In my\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/news.umbc.edu\/umbcs-chris-curran-receives-major-nij-grant-for-research-on-law-enforcement-in-k-12-schools\/\">own research<\/a>, my collaborators and I have found that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/convention2.allacademic.com\/one\/asc\/asc18\/index.php?cmd=Online+Program+View+Paper&amp;selected_paper_id=1408348&amp;PHPSESSID=em1sjeosud16gjvt44724mjv22\">relationship-building with students is an important part<\/a>\u00a0of how school resource officers approach their job. In fact, we find that school resource officers prioritize relationship-building with students second only to maintaining security. Similarly, the National Association of School Resource Officers\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nasro.org\/about\/\">positions counseling\/mentoring<\/a>\u00a0as one of three key components of school resource officers\u2019 roles.<\/p>\n<p>In our study, school resource officers routinely meet with students one-on-one for informal counseling and give students high-fives and hugs. The officers explain that such activities are aimed at improving students\u2019 views of police and facilitating reporting of threats to security.<\/p>\n<p>We find that students who trust and report comfort talking to school resource officers are more likely than other students to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/convention2.allacademic.com\/one\/aera\/aera19\/index.php?cmd=Online+Program+View+Paper&amp;selected_paper_id=1439004\">report feeling safe<\/a>\u00a0at school. Unfortunately, abuses by school resource officers may undermine this trust and comfort.<\/p>\n<h4>Ideas for prevention<\/h4>\n<p>School resource officers are hardly the only profession where individuals have been found guilty of sexual misconduct.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www2.ed.gov\/rschstat\/research\/pubs\/misconductreview\/index.html\">Teachers<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2019\/01\/31\/us\/texas-catholic-church-sex-abuse\/index.html\">priests<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/av\/world-africa-49907376\/sex-for-grades-undercover-in-west-african-universities\">professors<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.huffpost.com\/entry\/ex-olympic-skating-coach-richard-callaghan-accused-of-sexual-abuse_n_5d506dd9e4b0820e0af7052d\">coaches<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2018\/10\/22\/sports\/larry-nassar-case-scandal.html\">doctors<\/a>, among many others, have been exposed in recent years for a number of sexual abuses of youth. Increasingly, more voices have been empowered to bring these abuses to light and hold perpetrators accountable.<\/p>\n<p>How then, might future abuses by school resource officers and others in the education environment be prevented?<\/p>\n<p>Laws and sentences that hold perpetrators accountable with stiffer sentences may be one step in the right direction for deterring future incidents. The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2019\/10\/03\/us\/michigan-officer-sentenced-sexual-assault\/index.html\">one-year sentence<\/a>\u00a0for the school resource officer in Michigan is, in my assessment, a light response to a serious abuse of power.<\/p>\n<p>It may also be important for agencies to consider the gender diversity of their school resource officers. All of the school resource officers arrested for sexual misconduct in the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full\/10.1177\/2158244014521821\">Stinson study<\/a>\u00a0were male.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edweek.org\/media\/school-resource-officer-survey-copyright-education-week.pdf\">Fewer than 2 in 10<\/a>\u00a0school resource officers nationally are female. While\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fox43.com\/2019\/07\/30\/former-downingtown-west-hs-resource-officer-arrested-accused-of-having-relationship-with-student\/\">female school resource officers have also been perpetrators<\/a>\u00a0of similar sexual misconduct, a more gender diverse workforce of school resource officers and their leadership may facilitate better oversight and accountability.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/connect.springerpub.com\/content\/sgrvv\/28\/6\/1054?implicit-login=true\">Training<\/a>\u00a0for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/files.eric.ed.gov\/fulltext\/ED593742.pdf\">school resource officers, teachers and students<\/a>\u00a0may also help potentially inappropriate relationships be avoided and those that occur be reported. For example,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gao.gov\/assets\/670\/660375.pdf\">federal guidance<\/a>\u00a0in this area suggests training that helps other adults recognize the signs of abuse, delineates proper boundaries in adult-child relationships and supports the development of policy governing sexual misconduct in schools.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, agencies should look for ways to facilitate safe and easy reporting of incidents that involve sexual misconduct by police. Anonymous tip lines and digital reporting apps may be one way to facilitate greater reporting. Transparency in the record keeping of such incidents would help ensure that patterns of questionable activity are probed and that perpetrators are not protected behind the veils of bureaucracy.<\/p>\n<p>Taking such steps as these could help prevent what occurred in Michigan from repeating elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Author Bio: <\/strong>F.
