We, the parents, staff, and stakeholders of VSY students petition the city of Fort Lauderdale to supply an effectively trained School Resource Officer to be present during all hours that students are on campus. We will not wait for policies and politics to change to keep our kids safe. We demand that the City of Fort Lauderdale fully fund an effective full time SRO immediately at VSY.

Our children's lives are important. It shouldn't be at risk while on the road to success. Every child should feel safe going to school. No parent should have any fears bringing their children to school. Please get us an officer on campus!

Also, the district shouldn't allow public voting to take place at our school during days when students are on campus. This exposes our students to unnecessary risk, especially during drop off time in the morning!

Keep our children safe! Lets prevent future violence instead of only having to respond to violence, which has proven ineffective in the past.
