Today our ACE students from Rico, Airport, and North Bridge were visited by our special friends from the Texas Department of Public Safety; Officers Anciso, Hernandez, and Lopez! 👮🏻👮🏻‍♂️

Our ACE students were able to listen to the many qualifications and benefits of being a Texas State Troopers. They not only were presented a video, but the officers kindly brought our students uniform gear for them to try on and experience the everyday life of a State Trooper! 💙 We finished off our presentation with a close up of their patrol vehicles.

We’d like to send a huge thank you to our Local DPS State Troopers for all their hard work and commitment to our community! 🇺🇸 Our WISD ACE Students and Staff will hold this experience and memories forever.

Students were able to sit down with a Zoo Keeper and learn facts about snakes and even got up close to touch one. 🐍 Our Summer Program continues this week with more jam packed activities and fun! 🎉🙌 North Bridge Elementary
