With the first day of school being tomorrow, our buses will be on their routes to pick up and drop off students. When you see a bus on the road please remember:

🟡 Flashing yellow lights: The bus is preparing to stop to load or unload children. Motorists should slow down and be ready to stop.

🔴Flashing red lights: The bus has stopped and children are getting on or off. Motorists MUST stop their cars and wait for children to load on or off. Once the stop arm is withdrawn, lights are off, and the bus starts moving then cars may proceed.
