The Kirksville Fire Department is a team of hardworking individuals who have served the community for over a century. When we aren't in the field providing fire and emergency response, we are constantly striving to make Kirksville a better place through our public programs. These programs include station tours, fire extinguisher training, Adopt a Child, and many more.

Fire Safety Programs

• Stop Drop & Roll
• EDITH (Exit Drills In The Home)
• Fire Evacuation Planning
• Fire Extinguisher Training
• Home and Business Fire Safety Inspections 
• Setting Up Programs in Pre-Schools
• Fire Engine Visits
• Station Tours
• Student of the Month Ride-Along Program
  • Every month a boy and a girl from Ray Miller Elementary School (Kirksville) are selected "Student of the Month". These students are chosen by their teachers for their outstanding endeavors, and standing out through showing respect, and responsibility, practicing safety, kindness, and cooperativeness.  Through this process, one name from each grade is drawn from the chosen students, in which they can ride to school in a fire truck.  If a child lives in town the fire truck picks them up at home and takes them to school.  If the child lives in the county, the parent delivers the child to the Kirksville Fire Department and the truck takes them to school from there.  These children also receive a special gift from the Fire Department.
