Mount Vernon Fire Department visits Graham School
Graham School welcomed the Mount Vernon Fire Department on Thursday and Friday, October 24 and 25, 2024. The pre-K, kindergarten, and first grade classes enjoyed a demonstration on subjects such as “stop, drop and roll,” calling 911, and what an escape plan was. They were also able to sit on the fire truck and carry the fire hose. What a great experience for the little scholars! Thank you to the Mount Vernon Fire Department!
