First Grade was visited by the United States Pentagon Police Force. Officer Nation talked to all of the first graders about the Pentagon. Then he read a book called Officer Buckle and Gloria. Sergeant Austin surprised the first graders by bringing K9 Officer Honza. We really enjoyed them coming to visit and bringing Honza and letting us pet him.
