SRO Oversight Committee Work
TTSD is forming an SRO Review Oversight Committee.
Committee members will work in partnership with the district and city officials to participate in the community process and review all feedback that is collected. The Committee will then contribute to the recommendation defining the future role and relationship between the SRO and TTSD. The Review Committee will be made up of district and city representatives as well as parents, students, and community partners.
The process will take place between October 12th - 30th (updated information below) 11/6/20

Recommendation
Based on the feedback from listening sessions, interviews, community and student surveys, and the community review process, it is the recommendation of the partners to continue with a newly structured SRO program. Additionally, we recommend that TTSD convene a Steering Committee including representation from TTSD District Admin, Building Admin, Staff, Students, Tigard Police Department, Tualatin Police Department, Families, and TTSD’s community partners from community-based organizations.
The suggested timeline for completing this process is April 1, 2021
Special attention will be given to creating opportunities in the program where SRO’s will meet regularly with student affinity groups, attend school assemblies for introductions and explanation of their roles, be present at staff meetings to create a new level of partnership with the staff, and be accessible to parents through scheduled meetings times such as during school conference times or community engagement opportunities.
Next Steps:
Tigard Police Department, Tualatin Police Department, and TTSD will be working to develop a work plan and reach out to those here interested in being a part of the Steering Committee to review our plan along the way.
Our area of focus will be the crosswalk of the following as highlighted from our Joint Session:
- Relationship Development with Students and Families - Intentional focus on underserved communities (racial affinity groups, students in foster care, students and families navigating houselessness, students with disabilities)
- Health & Safety
- Physical
- Social/Emotional and Mental Health and Well-being
- Transparency and Understanding of SRO’s role in the community
- Broad communication to staff, students, families, and community
- Locally outreach and communication plans for ongoing calibration and understanding of the scope of work
- Address impact of Uniform and militarized gear
- Professional Development: Trauma-Informed, Anti-racist and implicit bias training
- Community outreach specifically students and families of underserved communities of color
