Mattapoisett Kids Test Their Speed With the Help of Local Officer
Have you ever wondered if a radar speed trailer would work on people?
Students at Center School in Mattapoisett recently got to test that theory out for themselves, when School Resource Officer Junior Cardoso showed up with one at the school's annual field day.
Cardoso usually works as an SRO at Old Rochester Regional High School, but he typically checks in with students at the district's elementary schools a couple times a month as well, where he gets to spend some time chatting and eating lunch with them. Because of COVID and with kids learning remotely, Cardoso said it had been about a year since he'd seen most of the students, so field day was a great way to get back to some normality. And what better way to get the kids active and excited than some real-life policing equipment?
