It's National School Bus Safety Week! Let's take a minute to review some important safety tips : School safety starts at the bus stop. 🚌 🛑 ⌚ Arrive at the bus stop five minutes early. 🚏 Stand five giant steps away from the curb. 🚌 Wait until the bus stops, the door opens, and the driver says it’s okay before stepping onto the bus. 👁️ Be sure the bus driver can always see you, and you can see the bus driver
