Today, and all week, Onsted Community Schools is participating in Operation Safe Stop. We are sending a zero-tolerance message to the public: illegally passing a school bus on America’s roadways will result in a ticket. www.michigan.gov/SchoolBusSafety

Operation Safe Stop, a statewide law enforcement initiative targeting illegal passing of stopped school buses, is conducted each year during National School Bus Safety Week. Police agencies work with local school districts to enforce and educate drivers about the rules while driving near a school bus. Help keep students safe!

During a one-day survey conducted by 1,738 Michigan school bus drivers in May of 2026, drivers reported 950 incidents where a motorist passed a school bus illegally.

School buses are the safest way for children to get to school. Their design is meant to be safer than any passenger vehicle in avoiding crashes and preventing injuries. Treat the flashing lights of a school bus like a traffic signal.

Drivers who pass stopped school buses may be charged with civil infractions carrying a fine up to $500.

In Michigan in 2025, there were 1,189 crashes involving school buses, 82 of those happened at bus stops. Of the 82 bus stop crashes, there were no fatalities; however, there were 35 injuries. If the bus lights are flashing red – STOP!

In Michigan in 2025, October was the month with the most school bus-related crashes (157). That is why Operation Safe Stop is out all week – helping keep students safe on their way to and from school.

School bus-involved crashes increased 12% from 2024 (1,044) to 2025 (1,189). Help us decrease crashes.

In a normal year, 500,000 buses nationwide take 26 million students to and from school each day. School + field trips + sports and more means buses log 10 billion miles traveled every year. See the red flashing lights of a bus? Stop!

Dear Parents, Guardians, Students, and Community Members,

Onsted Community Schools is currently addressing an issue with the geothermal system that heats and cools our buildings. An affected area near the soccer fields has been marked off with caution tape and barriers while the issue is being resolved.

The taped-off area is out of bounds and closed to everyone except authorized personnel. Please stay outside this area and remind children to respect the barriers until they are removed.

All appropriate response steps and environmental actions have been taken. Our school buildings remain safe for students and staff, and school will continue as scheduled.

Thank you for your cooperation as we work through this issue. We will share additional updates as needed.

What is Glycol?

Intercool P-300 is a propylene glycol-based liquid used to transfer heat in heating and cooling systems. It helps prevent freezing and contains additives that protect pipes and equipment from corrosion.

For safety:

Do not drink it or touch spilled liquid.

Stay outside the caution tape and keep children and pets away.

If it gets on skin, wash with soap and water. If it gets in eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water.

Leave cleanup to trained personnel. Spills need to be contained and kept out of drains and waterways.

If swallowed or you have concerns about exposure, call Poison Help at 1-800-222-1222
