Child Care Maryellen Homan During the month of October, the Child
Care classes concentrated on children’s
health, safety, and how to deal with emer-
gency responses. They learned ways to
limit contagious diseases, how to handle
and report illnesses, and examined ways to
ensure children’s health and safety as well
as their own. Students also learned how to
treat minor injuries and how to respond to
more serious injuries. After the course, they
became certified in Pediatric First Aide and
CPR through training provided by Cary
Wertz, RN and EMT instructor at SRCTC.
The teens are especially mindful of
health and safety issues as they gain more
hands-on experiences working with a vari-
ety of ages of children through opportunities made available to them during
the Gearing Up for Kindergar-
ten program. Safety and fun
came together at Halloween
time. The students worked to-
gether to create cute invitations
and plan fun and not-too-scary
Halloween parties for the three
Kindergarten classes at OES. A
darkened story cave, tattoo par-
lor, relay games and creepy eats
were among the festivities.
What a spook-tacular time!
