Adopt-A-School
 Each
of the 16 fire stations has developed
a relationship with a neighborhood
school.
The
captain of each station met with the
principal and teachers and developed
strategies designed to raise awareness
of fire safety issues and provide
students with role models and mentors.
For
example, firefighters from Quint/Midi
3 work with students from School No.
12 on improving their reading skills.
The firefighter's activities have
been written in articles with the
Democrat and Chronicle and also in
the school's newsletter.
The
firefighters recently presented certificates
of achievement to the students involved
in the program.
