Buxton and Frisco Fire Departments Visit
This past Thursday, the Buxton and Frisco Fire Departments came to the CHSS OCS class and discussed with students about a career or volunteering to become a fireman, use of fire equipment, fire safety, and how the Hatteras Island Fire Departments work together. Students were able to ask questions from research they did on firefighters. Two of the fire trucks were brought to show students all of the different types of equipment that is used and the differences in the two fire trucks. Students had a great time learning and developed an appreciation for their volunteerism. Thank you to the local firemen that came out to work with our students.
