Westside Elementary School in Springfield had a special visitor in their classroom just before Thanksgiving break.

TWRA Officer Kaleb Stratton responded to the school to remove the whitetail buck that had found its way into a classroom.

Via Facebook, TWRA shared, “Surprise student at Westside Elementary in Springfield this morning. Officer Kaleb Stratton was called to the school to remove the individual, who had apparently broken his way in through an emergency exit.”

It continued, “The 2.5/3.5-yr-old whitetail buck was in good spirits and allowed officer Stratton to lead him to an exit. Today teachers are teaching the 4 R’s at Westside. Reading, Righting, Rithmetic, and Rut!”
