Lessons in the Child Protection Unit help students recognize, report, and refuse unsafe situations. The curriculum covers safety with guns, fire, crossing streets, riding on wheels, riding in a car, around animals, and personal safety (to avoid abuse). Children learn the “Ways to Stay Safe Rule”: stop and think if it’s safe and what the rule is, say words that mean no, and tell a grown-up. They also learn the “Always Ask First Rule”: always ask a parent or bigger person in charge first to check if it’s safe or when someone asks them to do something, go somewhere, or tries to give something to them.
