CROSSING GUARD TRAINING THIS THURSDAY
The Discovery PTA is trying to organize a Crossing Guard Volunteer Staff to make sure our students can safely cross 500 West, at the cross walk in front of the school.
Discovery currently averages 75 students crossing this street each afternoon. We expect this number to increase when the sidewalk is completed on 500 west up to 600 North, as many more students will begin crossing in front of the school instead of at the four way stop.
We currently have 11 parents signed up for crossing guard training. We need more parents to make the crossing guard run smoothly, and not over burden any one person. We are not asking that you come once a week, just once or twice a month.
Crossing Guard Duty is from 2:40 until 3:10 after school (1:15 – 1:45 on Wednesday). Our first training is September 10 at 9:45am at Discovery Elementary. We will also do an evening training if needed. The training takes only one hour.
You must be trained to cross students. Teachers in Box Elder School District are not allowed to be crossing guards due to liability issues, WE MUST HAVE PARENT VOLUNTEERS.
Discovery PTA cares about the Safety of our students but we must have your help. If you would like help please come to the training. Also if you need an evening training call the school and we will arrange one within the next two weeks.
Thank You!
