THE ISSUE:
Armed police officers in full uniform are currently patrolling many of our schools.
FACTS:
- The police assigned to the schools will be "visible and active" according to the board.
- Eight Catholic schools will be part of the plan, as well as 19 public schools in all areas of the city.
- Two public school trustees have said they don't want armed police in their schools, at least until after public consultations.
- TDSB director of education Gerry Connelly said she expects the uniformed officers to make a difference.
Here is a S.W.A.G. video on the issue focusing on Albert Campbell C.I.
