Students at FJC and JAE recently welcomed members of the Rocky Point Fire Department and the Sound Beach Fire Department for a special visit focused on fire safety. Firefighters spoke with students about the importance of having a family escape plan, knowing two ways out of every room, and practicing stop, drop and roll.

Students also learned how to recognize the sound of a smoke alarm, when to call 911, and how firefighters use their gear to stay safe while helping others. The visits gave students a hands-on, engaging way to learn important lessons about staying safe during an emergency.

Thank you to our local fire departments for taking the time to teach and inspire our young learners. 🔥🚒
