While National School Bus Safety week has ended, the conversation about it continues.
On Tuesday, members of our Camden CSD transportation team made their way to Camden Elementary School for a day-long series of bus safety assemblies with our students!
Among the topics covered were loading and unloading, and positive bus behavior! We had some volunteers come up front to demonstrate.
Remember the following safety tips:
-Stay back until the bus has come to a complete stop and the bus doors have opened. The recommended distance is at least ten feet from the curb or white line.
-If crossing the street, wait for the bus driver's signal to do so.
-Look both ways when boarding, and when crossing.
-The bus driver will be watching for potential hazards. If you hear a horn from the bus, get back immediately.
-Use the handrails when loading and unloading the bus.
-Do not stop in the road to pick up a dropped item when boarding the bus. The size of the bus can make it difficult to see you. Finish crossing and alert the driver for next steps.
-When on the bus, stay in your seat and keep your hands to yourself. Face the front of the bus, keep the aisles clear, and talk quietly.
When students keep these tips in mind, they go a long way toward ensuring a safe ride for everybody!
Thanks to Connected Community Schools for helping to put the pieces in place for this event!
