As a new school year approaches, we want our kids to enjoy their time in school and return to us safely each afternoon. It’s important for families to supervise young children and practice safety skills with their older children.

Stay Together
It’s important to never let your kids travel to and from school alone, take short cuts, or talk to strangers.
Encourage
Encourage your kids to stay in well lit areas when walking or riding a bike to or from school.
