It is never too early to learn how to respond to an emergency. Young students at Cornerstone Christian Academy in Jonesboro got a great lesson on Monday when representatives from the Jackson Parish Sheriff’s Office gave an entertaining and educational demonstration on how 911 works. Using prompts like an oversized telephone dial pad and instructing the students where exactly the numbers were that you would press each got the opportunity to act like they were dialing 911. The students also got to take a close look at and in a Sheriff’s car as well as see plastic replicas of other first responder vehicles and pieces of equipment.
