Students learn about an Officer and His Best Friend

Learning about an Officer and his Canine...

Three guest speakers came to visit Miss Amy Hathaway's class, at Brookside Elementary, They taught them about the day in the life of an officer and his canine.

Rob Glentz, Michigan State Police Trooper is Miss Hathaway's Community Mentor.  Mr Glentz also invited fellow coworkers, Trooper Casey Lalone and "Meeko", his canine officer. They shared their experiences as a Michigan State Police Trooper.

There is a story in one of their reading books that is about this same topic. Students learned about all the different things that the canine is trained to do.

Thank you Trooper Glentz, Trooper Lalone, and K9 Officer Meeko.  It was a great opportunity to have fun and learn about police work and their Canines work.
