Did you know that the school bus is one of the safest vehicles on the road? Less than 1% of all traffic fatalities involve children on school transportation vehicles. However, children are more at risk when approaching or leaving a school bus. It’s important for all drivers, as well as parents and students, to understand school bus safety. That's the focus of National School Bus Safety Week, an active and evolving public education program urging parents, students, teachers, motorists, school bus operators, school administrators, and other interested parties to join forces and address the importance of school bus safety.

Bullying prevention starts at home. 🏡 Parents and families can help by talking openly about bullying, listening to children, and working together with schools. This month, let’s build stronger connections to support our students, because no one should face bullying alone. 💙 #BullyingPreventionMonth

🌟📘 October is National Principals Month, and today we celebrate the outstanding principals leading our middle schools and K–8 schools!

Whether they are guiding students through the excitement and challenges of middle school or supporting learners from their very first days in kindergarten all the way through 8th grade, these principals are building strong bridges to the future. Their leadership helps students grow academically, socially, and emotionally during some of the most important years of development. To our Lake County Schools middle and K–8 principals: thank you for your dedication, vision, and commitment to helping every student thrive. 💙
