Let`s talk about bus safety! School starts on Thursday, so let`s refresh our minds to be ready for school safety.
πCheck Surroundingsπ
When you`re backing out of your driveway or leaving the garage, be sure to watch for children walking or biking to school. πΆββοΈπ΄ββοΈ
πΈSchool Zones: A Reminderπ
In neighborhoods with school zones, keep in mind that kids may be in a hurry to get to school and may not always be thinking about their safety! πΈ
π’Slow Down for Kidsπ’
π **Slow down!** Watch for children walking in the street, especially if there are no sidewalks nearby. Be especially cautious around bus stops, where kids often play and wait. ππ¦π§
πΈStay AlertπΈ
Stay alert! Kids running late for the bus might dash into the street without checking for oncoming cars. β οΈ
π§ Understanding School Bus Signalsπ€
Additionally, let`s review the rules for school buses! π It`s very important to understand the meaning of the flashing lights:
β **Yellow flashing lights** indicate that the bus is preparing to stop to pick up or drop off children. Slow down and prepare to stop!
π **Red flashing lights** with extended stop arms mean the bus has stopped, and children are getting on or off. You MUST stop your vehicle and wait until the lights stop flashing and the stop sign is retracted before you continue driving.
Together for Road Safety!
Letβs work together to keep our roads safe for everyone! ππβ¨
βItβs a great day to be a Patriot!β π
Liberty Magnet High Principal Chazz Watson proudly kicked off the morning on Wednesday with Matt Venezia and WAFB for a spirited back-to-school celebration. The Patriots showed up in "full force" on the day before school starts β bringing the energy, excitement, and school pride! πβ€οΈ
