With the new school year starting, let’s prioritize safety.
Here are a few quick tips:
Walking in school zones: Stay alert and follow the crossing guard's direction. Always use available sidewalks - never walk on the road - and cross at intersections or crosswalks.
Driving in school zones: Reduce your speed, be prepared to stop at all times, and wait for children to reach the sidewalk before continuing.
School Buses: Remember to stop when the bus’s stop sign is extended and lights are flashing. Stay alert for children running in front of or behind buses.
