Dear editor,

I have been listening to the news everywhere on TV lately about people getting killed by people that wasn’t right. This is including kids and our police officers. So listen to me to do something to help protect yourself if you have to. Go to the dollar store or somewhere and buy you a whistle and wear it around your neck all the time. Also, one other thing, I heard on the news from a teacher and principal from Geneva. Each kid in every room bring a can of vegetables from home and have it to throw if someone tries to enter your room. This will help to protect you in some way. You just think throwing a can of something at someone that will hurt if it hit you in the face.

The one thing please get your whistle and wear it around your neck all the time if you have to.
