Take a moment to review these key safety practices with your family:
🚨 Test Alarms Monthly: Press the test button on all smoke alarms every month.
🚗 Plan 2 Ways Out: Create and practice a home escape plan with two exits from every room.
🍳 Watch Your Cooking: Never leave food unattended on the stovetop.
🔥 Give Heaters 3 Feet: Keep space heaters at least three feet from anything that can burn.
🏃♂️ Get Out, Stay Out: Once you escape a fire, go to your family meeting spot and never re-enter the building.
Let’s work together to practice fire safety every day! 🚒👨🚒

October is #NationalPrincipalsMonth, and we want to take a moment to shine a spotlight on the incredible leaders who guide our schools every single day! 🍎✨
