October 21-25 marks National School Bus Safety Week, a period dedicated to emphasizing student safety during school commutes. At PVSchools, the focus on secure transportation for students remains a year-round priority.
The school district highlights that while school bus rides are generally safe, the moments when students are traveling to and from the bus require extra caution. The community is encouraged to exercise care by slowing down when they see yellow flashing lights on a bus and stopping completely when the stop-arm is extended. Drivers should only proceed once the red lights are off and the bus has moved forward. It's important for drivers to stay vigilant, particularly near crosswalks, school zones, and bus stops.
PVSchools expresses gratitude towards the PV community, acknowledging "our devoted volunteers and staff" for their ongoing dedication to creating a safe environment for students in and around schools. The statement concludes with a reminder of their collective efforts: "Together, we're making a difference in ensuring a secure journey for every student."
