Summer may be winding down, and that means students are heading back to class. As keiki return to campuses across Hawaiʻi, let’s do our part to keep them safe. Here are some tips to keep in mind:

1. Be cautious when pulling out of the driveway.

Watch for children and families when leaving your driveway, especially in the morning.

2. Watch for school buses.

Come to a complete stop and let children cross safely in front of the bus.

3. Talk to your kids about safety.

Remind them to never accept rides from strangers.

4. Update school contacts.

Make sure parent and caregiver information is current.

5. Stay informed.

Follow local news closely for incidents or events that could cause school closures.
