With all the kids we have seen over the last month we realized we didn't get all of our photos posted. Somehow Taft Elementary Kindergarten's photos didn't end up online for all of the families to see. Here are some photos of the children of Taft Elementary at Plain Township Central Station. It was a day of fun and learning about fire safety. Enjoy! Thanks to parent Katie Stokes for reaching out to ask for pictures! We love when families get involved!

🔥 Home Fire Sprinklers: Small Heads. Big Protection. 🔥

Did you know? A home fire can become life-threatening in less than 2 minutes. Home fire sprinklers are designed to respond quickly, controlling or extinguishing a fire before it spreads.

✅ Protect your family while they escape
✅ Reduce fire damage by up to 90%
✅ Use significantly less water than fire department hoses
✅ Operate individually—only the sprinkler closest to the fire activates

Home fire sprinklers work alongside smoke alarms to provide the best defense against fire. Together, they can save lives, protect property, and give families valuable time when every second counts.

🏠 Fire safety starts at home. Learn more about how home fire sprinklers can make your home safer.

Working smoke alarms save lives! Check yours monthly and replace alarms every 10 years. A quick test today could protect your home tomorrow.

Barr Elementary from Plain Local Schools had a great visit to the fire station on Friday. These kindergarten students were able to tour the station, meet the firefighters who serve our community and learn about fire safety to keep their family safe. All of this while also having fun. Ask your kindergarten student what they have learned about fire safety this past week - it's never too early to plan for safety.

Here are some teachable moments from their visit:
- Although a firefighter looks different when fighting a fire, never hide from them. They are there to help you and rescue you in the event of a fire.
- Smoke detectors help save lives by alerting the family that there is a fire in the home. Be sure to test yours every month.
- Ambulances help those who are sick or injured. While it can be scary if you're hurt or sick, it's important to seek help by calling 911 to get the hospital and see the doctor.
