🔥 Fire Prevention Week at MMCSD!
Today, in partnership with the Mount Morris Fire Department, our students in grades PreK through 3 attended a special Fire Safety Assembly. Firefighters shared important lessons about preventing fires, what to do in an emergency, how to plan escape routes, and when to call 911.
After the assembly, students had the exciting opportunity to explore fire trucks up close and even climb inside! 🚒
Fire Prevention Week is observed each year during the week of October 9th in commemoration of the Great Chicago Fire. It was first established as a national observance in 1925 by President Calvin Coolidge, making it the longest-running public health observance in the United States.
A big thank you to the Mount Morris Fire Department for spending the morning with us and helping our students learn the importance of fire safety! 🙌
