Ohio County EMS

Ohio County’s new school year starts tomorrow! To prioritize the safety of all involved in our school systems, we ask that you keep a few things in mind tomorrow...

1) Be sure to watch school zones and obey the speed limits, there will be increased patrol in school zones and at the schools.
2) Remember there will be an increase in traffic in the county, make sure to pay attention, use caution, and watch out for hazards.
3) Also, keep an eye out for school buses and kids during the commute and remember to always stop for school buses when lights are flashing, this will be strictly enforced.

We look forward to having a safe and successful school year!

*We ask that you pay special attention to the roadway in front of the high school as it will be very congested in this area.*

Let’s have a great school year!
