~-~- SCHOOL BUS SAFETY -~-~
As the 2026/27 school year fast approaches, please remember our buses will be back on the roads...
SCHOOL BUS SAFETY STOP FOR RED
When a school bus has flashing red lights and the stop arm is extended, STOP!
Stop at least 20 feet from the bus. Watch carefully for students crossing the road.
Never pass a stopped school bus.
Give our students the time and space they need to get home safely.
Yellow lights = Prepare to Stop
Red lights = STOP
Let’s keep our Benzie Central Huskies safe!
