Boys golf took 4th place earlier this week at Three Rivers Conference Golf Tournament. Carter Scherschel shot an 80 and finished in 7th place. This also earned him First Team All Conference Honors.
🛑 Stop arm violations #6, #7, and #8 have all occurred in just the last week for our district.
🚸 Every violation is a risk to a child’s life. Passing a stopped school bus is illegal, dangerous, and potentially deadly.
When the stop arm is out:
✅ STOP — from both directions
✅ WAIT until the arm retracts and lights stop flashing
✅ PROTECT our students
📢 Let’s not wait for a tragedy to take this seriously!
