The Matanuska Susitna Borough School District added a new Security Resource Officer (SRO) position for the new school year.

Assistant Superintendent Amy Spargo says that a new SRO started at Palmer High this school year. Spargo says that that MSBSD plans on adding SRO positions to Colony and Houston High in the near future.

Spargo says that parents and students would prefer to have someone in schools who is trained to handle a violent situation differently than what educators are trained to do.
