Safety City Event Date: 3/22/2010Check-in Time: 9:15AM Start Time: 9:30 AM Event Length: 3 1/2 hrs Cost: n/c Contact: Lisa Wheeler - wheeler100@gmail.com Deadline: 3/8/2010 - Pre-registration Required. Age/Grade Restriction: Minimum grade 2 through grade 2. Description: Two uniformed police officers teach the course to second graders from all Fayette County public and private schools. This age group was chosen because, according to educators, that is the level at which children begin to use reasoning powers and they are the appropriate age to drive the mini-cars. This three and one half hour course was developed by the Lexington Division of Police, Bureau of Community Services, with the help of Fayette County Public Schools. Topics covered include pedestrian, bicycle, passenger, school bus, and general safety (fire, dangerous strangers, water, gun safety, emergency phone calls). The curriculum includes classroom instruction and practical exercises. The practical exercises, done on the streets of Safety City, consist of closely monitored walking trips and mini-car driving. See the website for more information: http://www.lexingtonprosecutor.com/safety.htm Details/Notes: ** Please pick students up by 1:00pm. Parents may come at 12:15pm to watch the cars. ** Safety City requests that students be 2nd grade for this field trip. ** Students need to bring a sack lunch and have jacket if it is cold or rainy. ** 2 chaperones are needed. Siblings may stay, but may not participate. Directions: Safety City – 1160 Red Mile Place (behind the Family Care Center) |
