A school district police department is a law enforcement agency that can detain and arrest children. The only body overseeing it is the school board. This page records what each board decided and when — nothing about whether it was the right call.
Since September 2023, Texas Education Code 37.0814 requires an armed peace officer at every campus during regular school hours. A district that cannot meet that — for lack of funding or of qualified people — must claim a good cause exception by formal board action at a posted public meeting, and adopt an alternative standard in its place, such as a school marshal or a trained district employee.
Either way there is a vote, and a vote is a public record. Statewide, most districts have not met the officer-at-every-campus standard.
