It’s that time again: Back to School!
We want to remind everyone that the entirety of Rice Street is a NO PASSING ZONE. In addition, vehicles will not be allowed to stop in the roadway, or park along the roadway. With increased traffic around all of our school campuses, we remind drivers to obey school zone speed limits, follow state laws when in the vicinity of school buses, and stay OFF your phones. We plan to monitor City bus routes to ensure that vehicles following or meeting school buses at their stops, are following state law. Allow yourself extra time to make it to your destination, and be on the lookout for pedestrians at all times!
We all have the same mission: to make this a safe, fun and successful year for every student at Waldron Public Schools. Do your part. Drive safely.
