📚👮‍♀️ A Lesson on Friendship and Safety with Officer Jackson! 👮‍♀️📚 Today, Officer Jackson joined us in a 1st grade classroom to read the heartwarming story Enemy Pie. 🍰📖 Together, we explored how small acts of kindness and understanding can turn "enemies" into friends. 💛✨ After the story, Officer Jackson shared an exciting behind-the-scenes look at her important role. She stood up and explained the "tools" on her vest, showing how she uses them to keep our school safe every day. 🛠️👩‍✈️ Thank you, Officer Jackson, for teaching us about both friendship and the many ways you work to protect us. You're a real-life hero in our community! 🦸‍♀️👏 #CommunityHeroes #KindnessMatters #FultonsFinest
