🚍 National School Bus Safety Week Reminder! 🚍
🟡 SLOW on YELLOW: Yellow flashing lights mean the bus is preparing to stop. Slow down and get ready to stop.
🛑 STOP on RED: When you see a school bus with flashing red lights, it means kids are getting on or off. Stop and wait until the lights stop flashing and the bus moves. It's THE LAW!
Let’s keep our kids safe and ensure they get to school and back home safely. Share this message and help spread awareness! 🚌💛

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.

A message from the West Virginia Department of Education about the recent school threats in our state:

Pocahontas County Schools staff enjoyed meeting children and families during Roadkill in Marlinton on September 28. We thank "Save the Children" for donating books and games.
Sophomore Parents Ask your students how they can : -get a monthly stipend -free trips to visit West Virginia colleges -free college credits during their senior year! TRIO’s upward bound programs are well worth their time and effort. Have your child turn in their application to Mrs. Pritt in the office.
