October is Fire Prevention Month and a good time for all students and families to review Fire Safety procedures in their homes. Our school holds regular fire drills. Have you had a fire drill in your house recently?

It's never a bad idea to think about safety. Have you read Officer Buckle and Gloria? Gloria is a police dog who helps teach students about safety with Mr. Buckle. Our library has a copy of Officer Buckle and Gloria on display along with other great books about safety. Please come by the library to check one out!  Hear the author, Peggy Rathman, talk about her book by visiting http://www.teachingbooks.net/book_reading.cgi?id=8895&a=1
or watch a video of the book

While you're at home with your families there are many things you can do to honor Fire Prevention Month. Take some time to review this Fire Safety Checklist.  Then visit this site from Scholastic to practice a Fire Drill with your family and do lots of other fun activities!

Stay Safe!
