Jefferson High closer to taking on part-time student resource officer

Jefferson High might soon have a Boulder Police officer onsite for one hour a day, four days a week.

The Jefferson High School District No. 1 board at its Nov. 19 meeting — absent member Denise Brunett — unanimously approved a contract between the school and the City of Boulder that sets and defines expectations for the arrangement, which will provide the school with a student resource officer, or SRO.

The contract must now be approved by the city.
