🚸 School Bus Safety Reminders 🚸

We’re back in the swing of things with all our kiddos in school!

Please take a moment to review these important rules when it comes to stopping for school buses:

✅ Two-Lane Road
When a school bus stops, all vehicles traveling in both directions MUST stop.

✅ Multi-Lane Paved Road (no divider)
When a school bus stops, all vehicles traveling in both directions MUST stop.

✅ Divided Highway (with an unpaved space of at least 5 feet, a raised median, or a physical barrier).

-Vehicles behind the bus MUST stop.

-Vehicles traveling in the opposite direction may proceed with CAUTION.

Let’s work together to keep our students safe as they travel to and from school.
