Good Shepherd Catholic School Parent Council

Welcome back, students! As tens of thousands of children head back to school today, let's all do our part to keep them safe. Please remember to be extra vigilant and follow the school bus safety laws. 🟠 Flashing overhead amber lights mean the bus is preparing to stop. When you see them, you should: Slow down Be prepared to stop Watch for children 🔴 Flashing red lights mean the bus has stopped. You must not pass the bus from either direction. This is when children are getting on or off the bus. Let's work together to ensure a safe and successful school year for everyone!
