Freemansburg chief brings Dr. Suess to school

The sun did not shine.

It was too wet to play.

so they sat in the school

all that cold, cold, wet day.

But students at Freemansburg ES recently had a treat. Police Chief Todd Pantuso and Officer Ray Mead paid a visit to read Dr. Suess as part of "Read Across America." And they brought Thing One and Thing Two, too, who said, "How do you do?"Things One and Two were actually teachers Lindsey Artim and Kelsey Kalamar.

After reading Dr. Suess, curious second graders peppered Freemansburg's finest with questions.

"Did you ever catch any bad guys?" "My brother wants to be a cop." "If you get three tickets, do you go to jail?" "Have you ever gone onto the highway when there's a crash?"

Chief Pantuso, who plans to have students visit the station this spring, called his visit a "positive interaction" with children. According to Principal Kathy Quigney, 400 students attend Freemansburg Elementary.
