Officer Shawn came to school again this year and Carter was beyond thrilled. Carter started asking back in September if Shawn could come back and speak to his class and we told Carter that we thought it was a great idea but he would have to call Shawn and ask himself. After thinking about it for a couple of weeks, my brave boy asked me to dial Officer Shawn's number and Shawn never hesitated telling Carter to let him know the time and day and he would be there. The kids did great and really seemed to have fun.
Shawn talked to them about the importance of stranger danger, how to dial 911 and always find a police officer if you need help.
Then came the fun part...each child got to spend time in the police cars and play with all the sirens and lights!

A huge thank you to Shawn who came to school on his own time and really spent time with the kids. A thank you also must go to Officer Marshall and Officer Keifer who came with additional cars so all the children could have a turn. There is nothing better than seeing your child smile from ear to ear with pure delight!
