SUMMARY: West Point Police Department is working to bridge the gap between children and law enforcement in their community by visiting schools and handing out t-shirts that promote gun violence awareness. The initiative aims to educate children about gun safety and the importance of understanding what is safe and what is not safe when it comes to guns. Over 400 students at Church Hill Elementary School received free t-shirts with the message “Enough Gun Violence, Protect Our Children.” This effort by the police department is part of a larger strategy to connect with children in schools, community centers, and parks to promote gun safety education at a young age.
West Point Police stopped by Church Hill Elementary School on Friday and handed out free shirts to all students.
