🚍 It's back-to-school season, and that means it's time to brush up on school bus safety! Let's ensure our kids have a safe and enjoyable journey to school every day. 🎒📚
SCHOOL BUS SAFETY TIPS - AT THE BUS STOP:
•Arrive at the bus stop five minutes before the bus is scheduled to come.
•Wait at the bus stop in a safe place, 12 feet away from the road.
•Wait in an orderly group: Form an orderly line as the bus approaches, with the first student in line standing 12 feet away from traffic.
•If you miss the bus, return home and get help or phone a parent/guardian for assistance
•NEVER chase after the bus.
•NEVER wear headphones/ear buds or hoodies while loading or unloading the bus: the driver needs to be able to make eye contact and communicate.
•NEVER walk or drive to another bus stop:your bus driver will not be expecting you.
