These GOP has grown highly suspicious and critical of anything but religious schools, charter schools or homeschooling…

That’s not wholly true, but some of the dislike does come from a distrust of government. Despite their embodying the government’s ability to use force, police win a partial exemption to that distrust in large part because law enforcement is one the few tasks that the vast majority of conservatives agree cannot be privatized: It must be done by the government.
