🚌 It’s Day 2 of National School Bus Safety Week!
School buses are one of the safest ways for students to travel—but most injuries happen when getting on or off the bus.
Here are a few safety tips to help keep our students safe:
✔️ Wait for the bus to come to a complete stop before approaching.
✔️ Keep a safe distance and stay visible to the driver.
✔️ After exiting, walk ten giant steps away from the bus.
✔️ Be alert to traffic—drivers don’t always follow the rules.

🚍 It’s National School Bus Safety Week!
This week, we’re focusing on how we can all help protect students as they travel to and from school. Today’s reminder: always stop for school buses—it’s the law.
The “Danger Zone” around a school bus is real. Most bus-related injuries happen not on the bus, but when students are approaching or leaving it. That’s why flashing red lights and extended stop-arms aren’t suggestions—they’re signals to stop, stay alert, and protect our kids.
Let’s work together to make every bus stop a safe stop.
