Young students at the New Windsor Elementary School, part of the Newburgh Enlarged City School District, were treated to a visit by the American Red Cross on Thursday.
Students in kindergarten through second grade were educated about the importance of fire safety. Red Cross members shared important fire safety concepts and many preventive measures for keeping our students and families safe.
“Prepare with Pedro”, a 45-minute preparedness education program for grades K-2, was played to teach students how to be prepared and take action for home fires and other hazards.
Prepare with Pedro complements The Pillowcase Project in scope and mission, by reading a story featuring a penguin named Pedro.
