During today’s Homecoming Parade, a small fire broke out in one of the vehicles in the parade. School Resource Officer Jessica Baughman jumped into action, grabbed a fire extinguisher and quickly put it out.

Everyone was safe, and the situation was handled quickly thanks to her fast response.

Thank you, Officer Baughman, for always looking out for our Lakers and being ready to step up when it matters most. A parade day hero!

Today, the Lake Career and Technical Center Culinary Arts students Esme Stoufer and Ronan Nielsen prepared a meal for Camdenton School Resource Officers Chris Williams, Jamee Rugen, Corry Basler, and Jessica Baughman as a thank you to the campus police officers during National Police Week.

Dishes served were comprised of a Korean inspired seafood pasta dish, a scallop alfredo pasta, and a gooseberry desert.

In 1962, President Kennedy proclaimed May 15th as National Peace Officers Memorial Day and the calendar week in which May 15th falls, as National Police Week. Established by a joint resolution of Congress in 1962, National Police Week pays special recognition to those law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of others.
