"Participants have the opportunity to explore the bus while NPSD bus drivers explain school bus facts and safety information. Parents, students and their siblings are then invited to take a seat for a short ride around the neighborhood. The exciting day will wrap up with a safety video and safety education regarding the “danger zone” around the bus when loading and unloading. Information regarding bus tags, bus schedules, emergency phone numbers and day care locations will be distributed as well."
