Teachers and students began preparing for this breakfast back in February.
Students decorated a classroom as though it were a restaurant, and made posters and signs for the officers.
They said all the hard work they put in was worth it.

Alyssa White, a 6th grader at BMS said, “It means a lot to me, because a lot of officers have died putting in their work to save us and I just hope they know that we appreciate them every day for what they do.”
After the meal, each officer left with a little goodie bag filled with candy and a note from students as a token of their appreciation.
