Pedestrian Safety

Pedestrian safety education must be provided to children and parents within the first 30 days of the program year.
Children may learn these procedures during classroom activities and at home with parental involvement.

In addition to emergency evacuation procedures, it is critical for children to learn and practice safety procedures on:

  1. Safe riding practices
  2. Boarding and leaving a vehicle
  3. Crossing the Street
  4. Danger zones around the vehicle
