Fire Safety Week


RCW students in pre-school through 4th grade were visited by local fire department personnel. Fire Prevention and Safety Week brought the area fire fighters to RCW School. The students in Pre-K through 4th grade received classroom visits by local firemen. Area dept. member included: Brandon Howard (R), Aaron Haen( R), Phil Haen (R), Jason Rice (R), Damon Bratsch (D), and Les Schneider, Jr. (D).




Students received gift bags that included coloring books and sticker, as well as fire helmets. During the visits, firemen shared safety tips, reminded students to have their families check the batteries in their fire alarms, and encouraged them to develop a family plan should a fire occur in their home. Students also had the opportunity to ask questions and view some equipment used by firefighters including air masks, thermal imaging cameras, fireproof gloves and outwear.
