Hamilton school board scraps program that placed police officers in schools

June 23, 2020

A school board in Hamilton has ended a program that placed police officers in elementary and high schools, as some school boards across Canada weigh their own programs amid ongoing protests denouncing racism and police violence.

The motion also called for staff to identify gaps in supports for students, employees and the community, as well as next steps for developing a replacement program.
