Odebolt Elementary School

OABCIG's Elementary & Middle School building had two special guests today to help kickoff Red Ribbon Week. Deputy Cruz from the Sac County Sheriff's Office talked with students about the dangers of drug use and brought his partner K9 Remo in to show students how together they are specially skilled and trained to carry out a variety of police tasks including searching for drugs, locating missing people, and protecting people.

Red Ribbon Week highlights the importance of living a drug-free life. It presents an opportunity for parents, educators, and communities to reinforce the drug-free messages they share with their children throughout the year.

Mrs. Liechti's 3rd grade class enjoyed feedback from a local writer, Doug Clough, on their opinion writings about the importance of having a movie theatre in a small town.

Odebolt Fire Prevention Week cont.

Odebolt's K-5 Elementary students wrapped up Fire Prevention Week with a trip to the Odebolt Fire Department where they got to meet some of its local volunteer firefighters. The firemen showed the students their gear, talked with them about the importance of fire safety and awareness, set up simulations for them to practice "staying low" below smoke and heat, and their personal favorite, a ride back to school in the firetrucks. With lights and sirens of course! Thank you to the Odebolt Fire Department Firefighters for being our hometown heroes.

On their nature walk (they found a snake) to the pioneer cemetery and learned about the stagecoach inn. Thank you to Danielle Bennet and Morris Hurd.
