Safety Town is a one-week course that focuses on teaching children safe practices both at school and at home. The curriculum includes bicycle safety, pedestrian safety, school bus safety, fire safety, seat belt safety, gun safety, 911 and stranger danger. Instructors are Hilliard’s first responders, educators, and public service workers. Safety Town is open to children entering kindergarten in the fall.

Are you ready to educate your child about the responsibilities of being home alone? Our goal is to help every student feel more comfortable while home alone. This course teaches first aid, self-Heimlich maneuver, reasons to call 911, fire escape plans, microwave safety, and how to solve out-of-the-ordinary situations. A parent guide is included in the student manual, which provides helpful discussion points between parents and children.
