Peace River School Division

Road safety is everyone's responsibility. As students return to classes across the province, remember to slow down in school and playground zones and stay alert at crosswalks. And keep in mind, when a school bus has its red lights flashing, it's illegal to pass it.

Give yourself extra time on your daily commute to help everyone get to and from school safely.
