WALKING AND BIKING TO SCHOOL

• Do not text while you are walking.  It will distract you from being aware of your surroundings.
• When listening to music, take one ear bud out so you can hear approaching vehicles.
• Observe all traffic signals and/or the crossing guard - never cross the street against a light, even if you don't see any traffic coming.
• Walk your bicycle through intersections.
• Walk with a buddy.
• Walk on sidewalks, where available.
• Wear reflective material . . . it makes you more visible to street traffic.
• When riding a bicycle make sure you wear a helmet.
• Bike riders should ride on the right, in the same direction as traffic, using appropriate hand signals.
• Bike riders should respect traffic lights and stop sign.

BUS STOP LOCATIONS

• Wait in a safe place for your bus, away from traffic and the street.
• Stay away from the bus until it comes to a complete stop and the operator signals you to enter.
• Be aware of the street traffic around you.
• Drivers of regular motor vehicles are required to follow certain rules of the road concerning school buses, however, not all do.  Protect yourself  and watch out!
• Remind students of the safety rules regarding waiting at bus stops.
• Remind all students boarding buses prior to daylight to wear light colored clothing.
• Remind students to stand ten (10) feet off the roadway.
• Remind students to utilize lighted areas if applicable.

We earned a B on the Florida School Accountability Report!

Congratulations to all for a job well done!
