The theme of this year’s poster contest was “Learn the Sounds of Fire Safety.”

Noviskie said local fire departments gave presentations to school children around the county. Students learned about the sounds that smoke and fire alarms make.

Noviskie said students also learned to test smoke and fire alarms at least monthly, to change batteries in smoke and fire alarms every six months, and to replace alarms every 10 years.
