Our 2nd and 3rd graders had an exciting visit today from Officer Croslin, Officer Brown, and Officer Rocky from the Batesville Police Department!
Students learned all about what a K-9 does and had the chance to ask lots of great questions—like what Officer Rocky eats, where he lives, and how he helps keep our community safe.
Thank you to the Batesville Police Department for helping us celebrate Red Ribbon Week and for sharing this awesome learning experience with our students!

This afternoon, the football players, cheerleaders, and band brought the energy back to the elementary with a pep rally full of spirit and smiles.
