🚍 Bus Safety Reminder: Let’s Keep Our Students Safe! 🛑
As we observe National School Bus Safety Week, we want to remind everyone in our community to take a few extra moments to help protect our students as they travel to and from school each day.
The morning and afternoon commutes are some of the busiest times on our roads, and a little extra patience and attention go a long way!
🚗 For Drivers:
Stop for school buses when the stop arm is extended and red lights flash.
Obey all posted school zone speed limits.
Never pass a stopped school bus from either direction when required by law.
Stay alert for students near roadways, bus stops, and crosswalks.
🎒 For Parents & Students:
Arrive at the bus stop a few minutes early and wait a safe distance from the road.
Cross only when instructed by the driver, and always look left, right, and left again.
Use designated crosswalks and never cross behind a school bus.
Put phones and headphones away while walking to stay aware of surroundings.
Thank you for doing your part to ensure every student arrives safely and returns home with a smile!
