School is back, which means more school buses, more kids walking to and from school, and more drivers sharing the road.

Let’s all do our part to keep children safe:

🛑 Stop when a school bus has its red lights flashing and stop arm extended.
🚗 Slow down and watch carefully in school zones and neighborhoods.
👀 Stay alert for children crossing the street or waiting near the road.
📵 Put the distractions away and keep your eyes on the road.
⏰ Give yourself extra time—a few extra minutes can make all the difference.

The most important part of the school day is making sure every child gets home safely.

Have a happy, healthy, and SAFE school year!
