Get to School Safely

At our school, your safety — whether you walk, bike, scoot, or drive — is important to us. It's important for us to be careful, stay alert, and follow simple safety rules to make sure everyone gets to school and home safely. In this guide, you'll find easy steps to follow for safe travel, no matter how you get to school. Let’s work together to keep our school community safe!

Walk, Skate & Scoot Safely

Bike Safely

Be Safe

Protect your brain; it’s the law. Fit your helmet snug and level on your head just above your eyebrows.

Be Predictable

Follow all signs, signals, and rules of the road, just like a driver.

Be Alert

Look for drivers turning or exiting a driveway. Stop for people in crosswalks. Ride a safe distance from opening car doors.

Be Cautious

Go slowly when riding on sidewalks and stop at all intersections. Consider walking your bike through crosswalks.

Drive Safely

SLOW DOWN in school zones. The safe speed may be less than 25 miles per hour.

FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS from safety patrol/crossing guards.

LOOK FOR CHILDREN walking, crossing, and bicycling on the street from all directions.

STOP FOR PEOPLE crossing in crosswalks, intersections, and in the middle of the street.

GO WITH THE FLOW Follow school drop-off and pick-up rules. Pull all the way to the curb rather than letting kids out in the street.

FOLLOW THE RULES OF THE ROAD and avoid mid-block u-turns, turning against “No Right on Red” signs, and dropping off along red curb zones.

RESPECT YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD and park in legal spaces and avoid double parking or blocking driveways. Consider carpooling, walking, or biking to school.

AVOID texting, phone calls, and other distractions while driving, biking, or walking.
