Students at Fletcher Primary School are learning that wearing safety helmets is cool.  Representatives from Colorado Area Health Education Center (AHEC) and the University of Colorado Hospital will visit the school on March 14 to teach students about helmet safety.   

Students will learn about the rules of the road, the importance of always wearing a helmet on every bike and other wheeled sports rides, and how to properly wear a helmet to help prevent injury.  

To culminate each session, the health care representatives will fit every student with a new helmet.
