Community Helpers: Game Wardens

Another great group of community helpers who payed a visit to our school is the local Game Warden from Baylor and Knox Counties.  These two young men where FABULOUS with the kiddos.  They explained things and let the kids climb on the boat and steer it (it wasn't running!), sit in the pick-up and turn on the lights, look through binoculars, hold a magnet used in testing water fowl and the bullet used, and talk on their PA system both in the pick-up and their handheld.









These guys were awesome!


Thank you very much for your presentation and for letting us experiment with your cool gadgets!

Community Helpers:Mr. Don

One of the students favorite community helpers was Mr. Don and his trash truck.  He dumped the dumpster for the kids and they were mesmerized!!!!


Thank you Mr. Don you are very needed in our community and we appreciate your dedication!

Fire Prevention

During the month of October we celebrate Fire Prevention and learn about how to be safe at home incase of a fire.  The PreK students made fire prevention poster which were judged by our local volunteer fire men.

Look how BIG my PPCD kiddos are acting at our assembly after our fire drill!!!!
Please be sure and have a safety meeting place incase you ever have a fire at your house and be sure to check your smoke detectors often!

Community Helpers:EMT

Have you seen the inside of an ambulance?  Our PreK and Kindergarteners have.  When the local EMTs came to the school they showed us lots of interesting things.  The students enjoyed all of it and especially enjoyed walking through the ambulance.
