In recognition of National Fire Prevention Week, students in preschool through third grade had the opportunity to explore the fire engines and EMT vehicles brought to WCDS by the Flint Hill and Chester Gap Volunteer Fire and Rescue Companies. The students listened, wide-eyed and attentive, as the volunteer firemen described their equipment and advised the students how to respond to a fire emergency. Students and faculty alike expressed their thanks to the squad members for volunteering their time to visit WCDS, and the little ones especially appreciated the souvenir stickers, fire hats and coloring books that were handed out. Observed Head of School Kathleen Grove, “We deeply appreciate having within our community dedicated public servants such as these young men.
