For “Dress As Your Favorite Person Day,” 5-year-old Easton Blocker from Arkansas didn’t choose a superhero or a celebrity — he chose his school’s security officer, Jeffrey Cross.
Easton said Officer Cross is his hero because “he keeps me safe every day.” Wearing a bright yellow “Junior Security” shirt, he stood proudly beside the man who inspired him.
