Great American Teach In at Padgett Elementary

One of the many school programs in which we like to participate is the annual "Great American Teach In". Our members enjoy visiting local elementary schools in the greater Lakeland area and discussing a wide range of topics with the students.

Sometimes we talk about careers in law enforcement... sometimes we discuss citizenship... and sometimes we just talk about whatever the students want to ask us.

Pictured below are photos of Assistant Chief Charles Thompson as he visited Padgett Elementary School and spent time with the classes of Ms. Winkles and Ms. Ashmore. Our thanks to the school's principal - Ms. Tanya Matthews - for inviting us to come visit the students.

 

If you are interested in having an LPD member visit your school next year, give us a call so we can schedule an appearance. We will be happy to come visit your classroom.
