Students and parents in the La Crosse School District have a couple more days to fill out a survey about school resource officers.

The online survey is aimed at helping the school board decide whether to keep police officers in school buildings.

The results will be reviewed later this week, so superintendent Aaron Engel can submit a report to the school board on November 16th.

Distrust or fear of having police officers in La Crosse school buildings has led to expectations that the school resource officer program will be ended next year.
