** District 6 Friends and Neighbors,
Good morning -- today certainly feels like Fall! Happy Back to School District 6 students and families! Road safety as we head back to school is critical -- for tips and reminders on what to do as motorist when buses are stopping you can reference this link from the Office of Traffic Safety ([link removed].) .

** School Bus Safety Tips for Motorists
------------------------------------------------------------
* Motorists must stop at least 20 feet from a school bus that is displaying red flashing lights and/or its stop arm is extended when approaching from the rear and from the opposite direction on undivided roads.
* Red flashing lights on buses indicates students are either entering or exiting the bus.
* Motorists are not required to stop for a bus if the bus is on the opposite side of a separated roadway (median, etc.) — but they should remain alert for children.
* Altering a route or schedule to avoid a bus is one way motorists can help improve safety. In doing so, motorists won’t find themselves behind a bus and as a result, potentially putting children at risk.
* Watch for school crossing patrols and pedestrians. Reduce speeds in and around school zones.
* Watch and stop for pedestrians — the law applies to all street corners, for both marked and unmarked crosswalks (all street corners) — every corner is a crosswalk.

I hope you had an amazing Summer and were able to stop by the Minnesota State Fair! My sons and I made it last week and our favorite food still remains Sweet Martha's Cookies!
