Arming Educators

Whereas, various state legislatures have passed laws authorizing school districts to allow educators or school volunteers to be armed at schools; and

Whereas, educators and school volunteers are not law enforcement—trained personnel; and

Whereas, educators and school volunteers should not be used to enforce security and police activities;

Therefore be it resolved, that AFSA opposes the arming of school personnel or school volunteers (other than sworn peace officers) at school sites.
