Riverbend Middle School

This week, let's focus on protecting what matters most – our families, homes, and communities! 🏠👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Here are a few fire safety tips you can practice today: Check your smoke alarms – Make sure they are working, and replace the batteries if needed. Create a fire escape plan – Ensure everyone in your household knows two ways to escape from every room. Practice your plan – Have a home fire drill so everyone knows what to do in case of an emergency. Stay safe in the kitchen – Never leave cooking unattended, and keep flammable items away from the stove. Remember, preparation saves lives. 🔥🚒 Let’s all work together to prevent fires and keep our homes safe.
