SUBJECT:
“Safety in the Schools” – Bus Safety Video
Utah State Standards for school buses require students to receive annual bus safety instruction.
Bus safety instruction and awareness for students in grades K-1 will come in the form of an assembly entitled “Safety in the Schools”. The assembly is typically conducted in the auditorium followed by an exercise conducted on a school bus. Jackie Ontiveros (801) 567-8856 will be contacting you in the near future to schedule your assembly.
Bus safety instruction and awareness for students in grades 2-6 will come in the form of a video. This video is available via YouTube for each individual teacher to present to his or her class. The link to the video is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zd-Z-8OOWOA. When every teacher in grades 2 to 6 has shown the video to his or her students, please send a quick e-mail confirmation to jacqueline.ontiveros@jordandistrict.org indicating that your school has completed this process.
Feel free to contact the Transportation Training Department (801) 567-8856 with any questions you may have.
We would like to have this completed and turned into the Utah State Office by October 31, 2019.
Thank you for helping Jordan School District achieve “Safety in the Schools”.
