“When you overhear from a Parkland doctor, ‘If I ever have a heart attack I hope I’m in Farmers Branch when it happens,’ you know you’re in capable hands with the FB Fire Department. Our Police Department is equally effective and highly visible. We have the deepest appreciation for the dedicated professionals we have looking out for us every hour of every day.”

Risk Watch®

Risk Watch is the first comprehensive injury prevention program designed for use in classrooms. Linking teachers with community safety experts and parents, Risk Watch effectively teaches kids and their families the skills and knowledge they need to be safe from unintentional injuries.

Risk Watch was developed by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) with co-funding from the Home Safety Council, and with input from a technical advisory group comprised of North America's most authoritative injury prevention professionals. These experts have helped ensure that all information in the Risk Watch program is of the highest quality.

The Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District has taken a proactive approach to injury prevention and has incorporated Risk Watch into the Physical Education curriculum in Kindergarten through eighth grade.
