Fire Prevention Week

This week GEMS is celebrating Fire Prevention Week by having our local Georgia firefighters come and show our students a safety presentation. National Fire Prevention Week is observed in the United States and Canada, during the week (from Sunday to Saturday) in which October 9 falls. In the United States, the first Presidential proclamation of Fire Prevention Week was made in 1925 by President Calvin Coolidge.

Talk to your child about fire safety at home and a plan a safe outdoor meeting spot with your family!

Thanks Georgia Firefighters!
