(MSC News)- I would like to remind everyone with school starting, take a little extra time while driving.

Make sure to watch for children crossing the streets as they are very excited to get back to school and may not always be thinking about looking both ways. There will also be school buses on their route so please be sure to give them extra room on the roadways and do not crowd them or follow too close. Be aware of when they are picking up students or letting them off---we will be issuing citations for vehicles running school bus stop signs.

Most importantly, make sure you and your children are buckled up. This simple task is proven to lessen the chance of serious injury or ejection during a crash.

If you see suspicious activity, vehicles or people, contact local law enforcement at once.

We wish all student parents and school staff a healthy and safe school year.
