MIAMI | Police and firemen and fish and wildlife officers were the stars of St. Brendan Elementary's Career Day, held Jan. 31 to coincide with the start of Catholic School Week. The schoolchildren got to look inside a Miami-Dade Police helicopter, jump on some all-terrain-vehicles and get close to a snake and a turtle brought by officers of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission. They also watched a fireman put on his gear and a police officer put a K9 through its paces.
