National School Bus Safety Week is here! 🚌 🚌
Safety is a team effort! Students, families, staff, and other drivers all play an important role in keeping safe around school buses.
Here are some important safety tips:
➡️ Arrive at your stop at least five minutes early and stand on the sidewalk/ at least six feet from the road.
➡️ Board the bus one at a time, hold the handrail, and take a seat!
➡️ Stay seated at all times, and keep the aisle clear.
➡️ Listen to the bus driver/bus aide at all times.
➡️ When exiting the bus, use the handrails, and wait for the driver’s signal before crossing the road.
#SchoolBusSafetyWeek
This week is National School Lunch Week! 🥗🌭
School cafeterias, food preparation staff, and the entire Child Nutrition department all play a critical role in providing students with healthy meals every day.
This year, our partnership with the Park Foundation and Chef Ann Foundation helps us to invest in our local community to feed our children with fresh, sustainable, healthy food.
Welcome back, ICSD! Here's to a brand new year of beginnings, friendships, learning, and growing. Let's make this year the best one yet!
