The first day of school for Stafford County students is Tuesday, September 4th. For twenty-three million students nationwide, the school day begins and ends with a trip on a school bus. The greatest risk is not riding the bus, but approaching or leaving the bus. Before children go back to school or start school for the first time, it is essential that adults and children know traffic safety rules.

Over the next few days, we will be posting safety tips for both drivers and students. Let’s make this a great school year for everyone!
