5th graders sat down with the
new officer in Aurelia, Officer
Samuelson, and asked him a
few questions.
Q: Do you like this new job?
A: “ Yes. I stopped for 4-4½
years to train dogs then I
missed it so I got back in it.
Q: Do you think it is hard to
train dogs?
A:” It requires patience but can
be hard. Every dog is different
like every student. If I didn’t
want to be a cop, I wanted to be
a teacher.”

A: “Yes I have 3 kids. I’m very
involved. That really is the
reason to be here In Aurelia. #1

Dear 5th Gradeby: Levi, Jacob, Keinna
Dear 5th grade,
At recess the other day, I saw two
kids being mean to each other and I
didn’t know what to do. At first, I just
watched but then it made me feel bad
how they were being mean to each
other so I walked away. I feel bad
because I think maybe I should have
told a teacher, but I didn’t want them to
know I told on them because then they
might be mean to me. I don’t know
what I should have done. What
should I have done?
Confused
Dear Confused,
It was right that you walked away,
but you should have told a teacher.
They can forgive you for telling,
because they would forget about it after
a while. If you had told a teacher it
could have prevented someone from
getting hurt. We understand how you
feel but we have to do the right thing
sometimes, even if it’s hard to tell on
your friend.
Sincerely, 5th grade
If you have any questions or
concerns, feel free to write in to
the 5th graders.
