CA. <br />CABARRUS COUNTY <br />1"BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />REGULAR MEETING <br />November 18, 2024 <br />6:30 PM <br />AGENDA CATEGORY: <br />Recognitions and Presentations <br />SUBJECT: <br />Emergency Management - Mt. Pleasant Elementary School Fire Safety Bulletin Board <br />Contest <br />BRIEF SUMMARY: <br />Each year, the Cabarrus County Fire Marshal's Office invites local elementary schools to <br />participate in a fire safety bulletin board contest. As part of this initiative, Assistant Fire <br />Marshal Ashleigh Ennis offers to visit schools and deliver a brief lesson on that year's fire <br />prevention topic. After the lesson, students are encouraged to create a bulletin board that <br />reflects the Fire Prevention Week theme. <br />This year, Mt. Pleasant Elementary School was the only school to take part. Assistant Fire <br />Marshal Ashleigh Ennis, along with School Resource Officer Jennifer Burnette, visited each <br />3rd-grade classroom to teach about this year's theme: "Smoke Alarms: Make Them Work for <br />You!" Following the lesson, art teacher, Amber Barnhardt, guided the students in designing a <br />bulletin board that showcased what they learned. <br />To reward participation, the Cabarrus County Fire Marshal's Office partners with ServPro to <br />host an ice cream party for the winning grade level. Since Mt. Pleasant Elementary was the <br />sole participant this year, their 3rd-grade students will enjoy an ice cream celebration later this <br />month. <br />Representing Mt. Pleasant Elementary are 3rd-grade students: Leroy Aiken, Cullen Belch, <br />Cora Mae Fast and Hudson Love. <br />These students will present their bulletin board and share the valuable fire prevention tips <br />they've learned. <br />Page 89 <br />
