🚌 School Bus Safety Reminder 🚌

With many schools starting tomorrow, please remember to stop when a school bus has its red lights flashing and stop arm extended.

Stay alert, slow down, and help keep our children safe as they travel to and from school. A few extra moments of patience can prevent a tragedy.

Let’s work together to make this a safe school year! 🎒📚

With another heat wave rolling in for parts of the country, routine changes, stress or fatigue can easily cause your brain to go on autopilot.

Take steps to make sure this tragedy doesn't happen to you:
⚫ Place a stuffed animal in the front seat as a reminder to check the back
⚫ Put an important item in the back seat
⚫ Have your daycare provider call you if your child doesn't show up for care
