The weather is warming up and more kids are out biking.

🚲 Team Duval students love biking, and we want them to Be Safe. Be Seen. 🌟

Parents, talk with your kids about bike safety:

👉 Always wear a helmet 🪖
👉 Look left, right, left before crossing
👉 Use bike lanes and ride on the right
👉 Stop at stop signs, even if there are no cars

💛 Ride smart, stay safe, Team Duval! 💪
