Thank you, Deputy Jimmy Spears and Eddie Eagle, for teaching our kindergarten and first grade students about gun accident prevention today! The Eddie Eagle GunSafe® program is a gun accident prevention program that seeks to help parents, law enforcement, community groups and educators navigate a topic paramount to our children’s safety. Eddie and his Wing Team have a mission to help children know what to do if they ever come across a gun… Stop, don"t touch, run away, tell a grown up! STOP! This first step is crucial. Stopping first allows your child the time he or she needs to remember the rest of the safety instructions. Don’t Touch A firearm that is not touched or disturbed is unlikely to be fired and otherwise endanger your child or other people. Run Away This removes the temptation to touch the firearm as well as the danger that another person may negligently cause it to fire. Tell A Grown-up Children should seek a trustworthy adult, neighbor, relative or teacher – if a parent or guardian is not available.
Some students had the honor to ride to school with a first responder today, as part of a Fall Carnival fundraiser. We would like to give a huge Thank You to Syracuse Police and Fire Departments and Bashan Fire Department!
