With students back in school, let’s all do our part to keep our roads and school zones safe. Slow down, stay alert, follow posted speed limits, and always watch for children crossing the street.

A few extra seconds of caution can make a big difference. Let’s keep our youngest community members safe!

Remember the rules of the road when school buses are picking up or dropping off students. Let's keep our kids safe!
