Nashville Police Pulling Harassed SROs from Schools

Two of the most troubled schools in Nashville, Tennessee—Bass W.A. Alternative School and Johnson Alternative Learning Center—will soon be without school resource officers after those SROs reported being verbally harassed on a daily basis.

According to NewsChannel5 , many of the students at the two schools have lengthy criminal records and most have been kicked out of conventional high schools because of behavioral problems.

"The officers don't need to be subjected to that kind of abuse; they don’t need to be subjected to an environment where the students aren’t welcoming," Metro Police spokesperson Don Aaron told reporters.
