🚌 School Bus Safety Week

October 19–23 is School Bus Safety Week, and we’re taking the opportunity to remind our students, families, and community that school bus safety is everyone’s responsibility.

When you see a school bus preparing to stop, slow down and be ready to stop. When a bus is stopped with its red lights flashing and stop arm extended, you must stop. Never attempt to pass a stopped school bus. Wait until the bus has turned off its warning signals and begins moving again before proceeding.

Please be especially alert in neighborhoods, near bus stops, and during morning and afternoon commute times. Children may be walking near the roadway or crossing unexpectedly.

Remind your child to:

Please talk with your children about safe bus-stop habits and, whenever possible, supervise younger children at the bus stop. Drivers should remember that a few extra seconds of patience can make all the difference.

Let's work together to make sure our Braves arrive at school ready to learn—and make it home safely each afternoon.

School bus safety isn't just a school responsibility. It's a community responsibility.
