Captain Cothren, a native of Marvell, Arkansas, along with Cpl Moore visited the Marvell-Elaine School District today. They were welcomed by Mrs. Jackie Cox and her 4th grade Library class. The children were able to engage in book reading and conversations regarding corrections and public safety. Some also expressed an interest in working for the Department of Corrections. We enjoyed giving back to our future Corrections Officers, Police Officers, Doctors, Lawyers, and etc. Thank you again Marvell-Elaine School District!
