🎒 Back-to-school season is here!

As students return to the classroom, we all play a role in keeping them safe. Please slow down in school zones, stay alert near crosswalks, stop for school buses and put distractions away while driving.

A little extra patience and attention can make a big difference. Review these important back-to-school safety reminders from the Dakota County Sheriff’s Office:

Let’s work together to make this a safe and successful school year for every student in Dakota County.

The start of the school year means more buses on the road, increased traffic around schools, and more children walking and biking to class. Whether you're a parent, student, or driver, we all play an important role in creating a safe school environment.
