The students got to learn more about essential fire safety practices in honor of Fire Prevention Month.Some of the fire safety tips taught to students included how to respond in the event of a fire and how they can keep themselves and others safe when such an emergency occurs. The visit from the Freeport Fire Department highlighted the vital role firefighters play in protecting the community and being prepared for various emergencies.“We are incredibly grateful to the Freeport Fire Department for visiting our students and teaching them such important lessons about fire prevention and safety,” Principal Jessica Romero wrote in a school district press release. “These hands-on learning experiences help our students understand how to protect themselves and others while recognizing the vital role our firefighters play in keeping our community safe.”This event continues the long standing partnership between Freeport schools and the Freeport Fire Department.Earlier this year, students at the Bayview Avenue School of Arts and Sciences held its International Firefighters Luncheon. Third-grade students made special dedications to local volunteer firefighters and applauded their continued efforts to protect their communities.New Visions also included firefighters in their 9/11 memorial service this school year. Just before the ceremony began, the first responders were called away to assist with an incident in Baldwin, before they were able to return to the school.This helped highlight for the students the ever-present commitment of their local fire department and the sacrifices that are often made for the sake of providing security to others.</div></body>
