To mark National Fire Prevention Week, students from preschool to the 5th grade learned all about fire prevention and safety during a visit from the Scullville Volunteer Fire Company on Tuesday, October 19. Fire Official Don Stauffer brought a ladder truck to the ACS campus and the students were able to get a close-up look at the tools, hoses, gauges, and safety and rescue equipment.
During his presentation, Fireman Stauffer talked about how smoke detectors work and explained what to do in the event of a fire. Each class also had the opportunity to pose in front of the fire truck with Mr. Stauffer, including Mrs. Kelley’s PreK4 class.
Students also did classroom projects around the theme of fire prevention and safety. In Mrs. Kelley’s preschool class, students also drew pictures of a house on fire with the important message of — “Don’t hide, go outside, get help, call 911.”
