        being forced to high five a cop before going to school sounds like the most terrifying fucking thing imaginable

        It just raises another issue to be discussed. And that"s good! But I believe the program has value and should still continue.

        I'm liberal and I love this idea. Our township police hosted a breakfast recently and I had pancakes with cops. Need more of this!

        @bydanielvictor I'm a teacher and that right there is a sad and troubling story. A great learning and motivating opportunity lost.

        Great attempt at reaching out to the community. Too bad police and WH have become so separated from people they serve. #A4Effort

        Good for the PD for listening to the concerns, even if unpopular.Maybe they can find middle ground?It's clear we still need healing

        Maybe the few kids doesn't want to tell on their patents. It's funny how a small group of people can change the popular vote.

        instead of high fives, try being human. That will save some life and give you some soul.

        Sorry the cops should just be a visible presence to make the kids feel safe & the parents should have dealt with how the kids react

        why did they stop? It great to see police close to the students and community. We need to see police as partner in solving crimes

        Parents need to teach their children it's ok to give high 5s. Don't instill fear. U attract more bees w/honey than vinegar

        It starts with parents who themselves don't fear the police. Maybe they have a record....

        I like the theory of the program now, as a kid I would have hated it & probably try to cut school that day
