| Did you know October is Fire Prevention Month? This past week, students at Harris Hill Elementary had a chance to hear from members of the Harris Hill Volunteer Fire Company, and even sit inside one of the company's trucks!
Here are a few fire safety tips from the American Red Cross:
● Keep matches, lighters and other ignitable substances in a secured location out of your child’s reach. Only use lighters with child-resistant features.
● Install smoke alarms on every level of your home, inside bedrooms and outside sleeping areas.
● Emphasize “get out, stay out.” Only professional firefighters should enter a building that is on fire—even if other family members, pets or prized possessions are inside.
● Teach household members to STOP, DROP and ROLL if their clothes should catch on fire.
