Plymouth School Board Renews School Resource Officer Agreement with Pay Increase

A School Resource Office Agreement was up for renewal when the Plymouth School Board members met Tuesday night.

Superintendent Andy Hartley mentioned a change was made to the agreement for 2020-2023.

He said it reflects an increase in what the school has to pay to the City of Plymouth in order to be more in line with the increases that the Police Department has provided to their officers.

Hartley explained, “They did a big study and officers were not comparable to other communities of similar size and so they had some changes. They waited until our agreement ended and was up for renewal before they did that.”

He said that was the only change made to the agreement. Board members approved the document unanimously.
