November Safety Focus | Traffic Safety 

As part of our November safety focus, we are reminding everyone of the importance of traffic and pedestrian safety around Somerset School, particularly during morning arrival and afternoon dismissal. 

To help keep everyone safe, we ask families to: 

Slow Down:  

  • Follow posted speed limits and remain alert in school zones. 

Park Safely:  

  • Respect parking restrictions, designated bus zones and no-stopping areas. 

Use Crosswalks:  

  • Model safe pedestrian practices and encourage children to use designated crossings. 

Stay Alert:  

  • Watch carefully for children, pedestrians and other vehicles. 

Follow Staff Directions:  

  • Respect the guidance of staff supporting student safety. 

 

Our school continues to work in collaboration with CBE Corporate Security and Transportation to support safe arrival and dismissal procedures. 

Thank you for helping us keep our Somerset School community safe!
