Safety Town is a nationally-accredited program designed to teach children how to play safe and stay safe. Children will develop confidence and knowledge they need during the beginning of their first years in school. The course will be taught at the Early Childhood Center by St. Charles City Police Officers, Park Rangers, Paramedics, Firefighters, Animal Control Officers and trained staff and volunteers from the Early Childhood Center. The program uses a simulated city layout, a classroom facility and an off-campus field trip to provide kids with “real life” events and teach kids to evaluate “safe” from “unsafe” situations, and how to react safely. Space is limited and early enrollment is encouraged.
