LIVINGSTON- School system leaders have to decide how to pay for a huge increase in school resource officers.

Some have suggested adding officers at all schools in the district.

Leaders said the increase is not directly related to the tragedy in Connecticut, where two-dozen kids were murdered in a school just before Christmas, but that incident did help fuel talks.

Currently, only three schools have school resource officers.
