Be Safe In School Zones This Spring

As warm weather arrives, more students will be walking to and from school. It’s crucial to prioritize safety while commuting. Please follow these guidelines at crosswalks and school zones:

• Wait for the crossing guard’s signal before proceeding.
• Always stop when the crossing guard is in the crosswalk.
• Do not park or stop in a crosswalk.
• Never pass a vehicle stopped at a crosswalk; a pedestrian may be crossing.
• Always follow posted speed limits in school zones.
• Be patient during busy school hours; allow extra time when dropping off or picking up students.
• Watch for children throughout the day, as they can be unpredictable.
• Never text and drive.

By adhering to these safety practices, we can ensure a safe end to the school year. Let’s make safety a priority every time we’re on the road!
