With school starting today, we all need to have our eyes and ears open to help keep the kids safe on their way to and from school.

School is starting this week so now is a good time to go over a few reminders.

🚌 PAY ATTENTION TO SCHOOL ZONES
🚌 Know when to stop for a school bus. Oncoming traffic does NOT need to stop on four-lane roads or two-lane roads that have barricades or medians.
🚌 Please keep your eyes open and stay vigilant. We want to make sure everyone gets to and from school safely.
