Back to School Safety Tips Riding the Bus School bus transportation is safe. In fact, buses are safer than cars! Even so, last year, approximately 26 students were killed and another 9,000 were injured in incidents involving school buses. More often than not, these deaths and injuries didn't occur in a crash, but as the pupils were entering and exiting the bus. Remember these safety tips: Have a safe place to wait for your bus, away from traffic and the street. Stay away from the bus until it comes to a complete stop and the driver signals you to enter. When being dropped off, exit the bus and walk ten giant steps away from the bus. Keep a safe distance between you and the bus. Also, remember that the bus driver can see you best when you are back away from the bus. Use the handrail to enter and exit the bus. Stay away from the bus until the driver gives his/her signal that it's okay to approach. Be aware of the street traffic around you. Drivers are required to follow certain rules of the road concerning school buses, however, not all do. Protect yourself and watch out! CLICK HERE TO LEARN ABOUT THE "DANGER ZONES" AROUND A BUS.

OTHER Back to School Safety Young students Pedestrian injuries are the second leading cause of unintentional death among children ages five to 14. Children who walk to school or to a bus stop must be reminded to: Look left, right, then left again before crossing the street. Always try to cross a street when a crossing guard is present. Cross in front of the bus only after the driver signals it’s okay to do so. High school students Statistics show that teen drivers are four times more likely to be involved in a fatal crash than more experienced drivers. In fact, 6,000 young people are killed each year in fatal crashes. If your children drive to school: Teach them to always buckle-up and require everyone else in the car to buckle-up as well. Remind them to always obey the speed limit. Choose a safe car for teens to drive—remember large cars are safer than small ones. Enforce no-drinking-and-driving rules. College students The number one crime on college campuses is theft. One-out-of-every 10 college students will be robbed while away at school. Most students’ belongings are covered under their parents' homeowner policies, but expensive computer equipment and other items may not be covered. Parents should check their policies to be sure and also: Remind students to always lock dormitory doors, even if they are just going down the hall.

Most children are not ready to be left alone until they are at least eleven or twelve years old, but it will depend on your child's maturity level. You may want to gradually let him stay home alone for very short times to make sure he is ready. Some things to review before you leave your child home alone include: Make sure that he is comfortable being home alone.

att.com Enterprise Business About Us Industrial Ecology ... Article Index Back to School Safety Children are heading back to school. The early morning roads are once again crowded with pedestrians, bikes, and cars in the rush to work and school. Drivers must always be watchful, and not only of other vehicles. In 1997, more than one third of the pedestrians injured by motor vehicles - approximately 77,000 - were children under the age of 15. Children frequently dart unexpectedly into traffic, often from between parked cars. If you're driving in and around school zones and other areas where children play, expect the unexpected. Bicycling in traffic or on busy roads can be dangerous. Just as if they were driving a car, children on bicycles must observe the rules of the road - yet they may not be familiar with them. The U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) suggests the following safe bicycling practices for riding in the U.S.: Always wear a helmet. Other safety gear, such as elbow pads, is recommended, especially for beginners.

Child Health Day Care Family Health Family Safety ... Toy Experts By Bruce H. Axelrod, M.D. As millions of children head back to school, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is helping parents, teachers, and caregivers look for hidden hazards to help prevent injuries and deaths to children. The Commission's "Back to School Safety Checklist" offers tips on making schools, child care facilities and playgrounds safer. Playgrounds Check the surfaces around playground equipment. There should be a 12-inch depth of wood chips, mulch, sand or pea gravel, or there should be mats made of safety-tested rubber or fiber material to prevent head injury when a child falls. Each year, more than 200,000 children are treated in U.S. hospital emergency rooms for playground-associated injuries. Most of these injuries occur when a child falls from the equipment. Drawstrings on Jackets and Sweatshirts Remove drawstrings on hoods or around the neck. Cut drawstrings at the waist or bottom of jackets and sweatshirts to 3 inches. Since 1985, 22 children have died when drawstrings caught on school buses, playground equipment and other products. Loops on Window Blind Cords If the windows in your home, childcare facilities or schools have blinds, cut the loop on two-corded horizontal blinds, and attach separate tassels to prevent entanglement and strangulation in window blind cords. Vertical blinds, continuous loop systems and drapery cords use looped cords to function. Do not cut these loops. Instead, install a permanent tie-down device. To obtain free tassels and tie down devices call (800) 506-4636. About one child a month dies from strangulation with window covering cords.
