School Fire and Life Safety Program

The Falcon firefighters and staff are very involved with teaching Fire and Life Safety topics to the local elementary, middle, and high-schools (as well as Pre-Schools) .  Each school year, hundreds of students learn about important safety topics and “life-skills” such as: Fire Safety, Life Safety, Water Safety, Poisoning Prevention, Bicycle Safety, Choking/Strangulation Prevention, Falls Prevention, Fire Arms Injury Prevention etc…

The 2nd graders in the District are also treated to an end-of-the-year Bike Rodeo.  The students are able to show off their bike riding skills by going through several obstacle courses and other fun and safe events.  Memorial Hospital, Memorial Star Helicopter, and Penrose’s Flight For Life Helicopter also participate yearly by teaching the students about other safety issues.

Before High School Graduation, and the Senior Class Prom, the students at Falcon High School participate in a Mock Car Crash produced and directed by the company: “Every 15 Minutes”.  Students from the Student Council and the Drama Department assist the Fire Department, Sheriff’s Office, State Patrol, AMR Ambulance, and a Life Flight Helicopter with a gruesome re-creation of a car crash involving a drunk teenage driver.  The County Coroner culminates the re-enactment by “zipping-up” one High School Student (actor) into a body-bag right in front of the entire student body.  

If you are interested in scheduling Fire and Life Safety Program(s) such as these at your business/school, please call 495-4050 for more information.
