The Roanoke Rapids Police Department and Hockaday Funeral Home have partnered together to establish an Escape School Program. Escape School is a safety awareness program offering classes in preventing child abduction, kids and guns awareness, general safety, and Internet safety.

Escape School is a national recognized program that is owned and operated by Dignity Memorial, a national network of funeral homes. Escape School has been featured on America's Most Wanted, Oprah Winfrey and may other recognized television programs as a leader in protecting children. The department offers Escape School to our local grade schools at no cost and is an exciting interactive program for both parents and children.
