Students at Chesterbrook Academy Preschool at Lancaster Labs in Leola recently created holiday cards for local police officers.

Throughout December, students handmade cards to thank the officers for their work in the community, let them know how important they are and wish them a happy holiday. This initiative was intended to help students learn the importance of spreading kindness and showing appreciation for essential workers, especially during the holidays.

Chesterbrook Academy Preschool in Leola is part of Spring Education Group, a multi-school network providing private school education from infant care through high school. For more information, readers may visit http://www.ChesterbrookAcademy.com.
