Let’s protect kids getting on and off the school bus! Always stop when the stop-arm is out. Stopping for school buses is the law in all 50 states. Following it protects young lives.

[Franklin County Sheriff’s Office @OHFCSO]

It is National School Bus Safety Week, so we want to make sure you know when to stop for a school bus.

2 or 3 lane roads: Everyone STOPS in both directions.

Highway with 4 or more lanes: Only vehicles going the same direction as the bus need to stop.
Be patient and stay aware!

While students were out Friday, SWCS staff continued learning through workshops and collaboration.

Do you know when to stop for school buses?

The only vehicles allowed to proceed when a school bus is stopped are those on a road with four lanes or more, traveling in the opposite direction. In all other circumstances, you must stop to protect students getting on/off the bus.
