Eastside SPED Makes Field Trip to meet Safety Pup and the Sheriff

Last Friday, the Special Education Program from Eastside Elementary School took a field trip to the Coffee County Sheriff’s Office to meet Safety Pup and the Sheriff! Upon their arrival, several deputies warmly welcomed the students, and Safety Pup welcomed them with a dance. Afterward, the students were brought into the Sheriff’s Situation Room, where they learned about the significance of calling 911 in emergencies and the CCSO drone program. They were able to watch a drone search of the administrative office on monitors in the situation room. Sheriff Fred T. Cole remarked, “Disabilities are challenges,but they do not in any way diminish the dreams of one’s future. It’s a privilege to have our SPED students come out and see how we protect them and their families.” The SPED program’s trip to the Sheriff’s Office is an annual event members of the CCSO look forward to every year.
