#SchoolBusSafetyWeek
It's #SchoolBusSafetyWeek, and we want to share a few reminders.
School safety starts at the bus stop. 🚌 🛑 Share these tips with your children:
⌚ 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.
Thanks to the 37 post-secondary institutions and military branches that came to visit with our MHHS students yesterday at our annual college fair. What a wonderful turnout!

Their teachers say they did and AWESOME job!
