The Toledo Police Department has developed a successful School Resource Officer Program, which assigns an officer to Washington Local Senior and Junior High Schools.  Washington Local Schools has agreed to provide an amount of $36,210.84 to continue funding the program for the 2021-2022 school year.  That amount represents one-half the salary and benefits of the officer assigned to Washington Local Schools for the school year (nine months).  Washington Local Schools has paid one-half of the salaries since the 1999-2000 school year.
