Reminding Students about Safety

Be safe        It is very important that teachers and parents alert students to remember safety rules, especially never accepting a ride with strangers!  School staff and parents should watch the bus stops and walkways for any unusual strangers who may be attempting to lure students into their vehicle. If you notice such a person, please alert your local law enforcement.
