Basic Safety Education Program Overview
In June, Sheriff Christopher D. Clark’s Community Services Division will conduct the Safety Village program in three Clark County areas. Safety Village is a basic safety educational program for Clark County children entering kindergarten (ages 4 to 5). Safety lessons include:
- 911
- Personal safety
- Railroad crossings
- Stranger Awareness
- Street and safety signs
- D.A.R.E. concepts
- Drugs and Poisons
- Fire Safety
- School Bus Safety
- Home safety
- Pet/Animal Safety
These safety awareness lessons are conducted over a period of 2 hours per day for 4 days. A graduation ceremony will be held on the last day of the program.
The Safety Village message is simple: To Keep Themselves Safe. The children will practice and experience situations so they can make the right, safe decision when confronted with real-life dangerous situations.
The Safety Village program is cosponsored by the Clark County Schools, the Springfield Pilot Club, the Exchange Club of Springfield, the Clark County Farm Bureau, Pathways Financial Credit Union, and the Clark County Sheriff’s Office.
