At BAPS, we start career exploration early! It was such a fun day for some of our younger students as they interacted with the Broken Arrow Fire Department to learn about fire safety and the profession. They even got to check out the firetruck! We heard a few of the students say “I want to be a firefighter!” and then we heard some of the firefighters say "This is one of our favorite days!" We love our community! Thanks, BAFD! 🚒
