School safety officers (who work for the NYPD but are supervised by school principals) are charged with maintaining order in city schools. What is your experience? (To comment, click here.)

	I think there should be even more off­icers; discipline is critical t­o academic rigor.
	I'm glad they're there; my k­ids are safer and the school is more sec­ure with a uniformed officer present.
	I understand why they are needed, although I wish that maintaining ­order didn’t require law-enforcement in ­the building.
	I don’t think officers should have a ­presence in schools; many are a­rgumentative, confrontational, or worse,­ and their presence 'criminalizes' the classroom.
