IN YOUR SCHOOL
Students cannot expect drivers to always stop. That's why bus stop safety education for all grade levels is essential.
CONNECT with your SCHOOL.
As parents, caregivers & educators you know constant reminders are a fact of life.
Fortunately, there are some fun & interesting ways to teach safety and get your students involved.
- Host a Back to School Safety day or a Safety Table event.
- Hold a safety zone contest - poetry, art, music - or have the kids come up with their own idea.
- Have kids write letters to their community leaders to advocate for their safety or have them invite leaders to a community forum. (remember to invite your school or local newspaper or TV station to cover the event).
