SHOUT OUT TO OFFICER HALL!!!!
When Officer Hall heard that Stephen Park really wanted to read the next book in the Percy Jackson series, but couldn’t find it, he wasted no time. He quickly jumped into action and purchased the book for Stephen himself. Our resource officers truly care about our students. Thank you, Officer Hall, for your kindness and generosity!
