Extractions: Back-To-School Safety Tips For motorists and parents Slow down and be alert in all residential areas and busy intersections. Allow enough time to avoid being tempted to run red lights and stop signs. Follow the school's rules about loading and unloading passengers. Remember that the speed limit in school zones is 25 miles per hour when children are present. Drive with headlights on (even during the day) to be more visible. Look for clues that indicate children might be nearby school safety patrols, adult crossing guards, bicycles, school buses and playgrounds. Scan between and around parked cars and other objects for signs of children about to dart into road. Practice extra caution in bad weather by increasing following distance. Stop for school buses flashing their red lights. Red lights flashing on a stopped school bus mean that children will be getting off or on the bus, so drivers approaching the bus from either direction must come to a complete stop. Always wear a safety belt. Children 12 and younger should be restrained properly in the back seat. A rear-facing child safety seat should never be installed in the front seat of a vehicle equipped with a passenger-side air bag.

Education School safety should clear the bar, experts say Security, up after Columbine, increased again after Sept. 11 By LORI PRICE / The Dallas Morning News There were incidents in West Paducah, Ky.; Jonesboro, Ark.; and Springfield, Ore. And there was Columbine. High-profile incidents of violence in the 1990s gave rise to fears among some parents that children might not be safe in school. But educators and researchers say it's important for parents to know that their kids are safe. In fact, research indicates that schools are safer today than they were 10 years ago, probably in part because the tragedies triggered a closer look at security, said Joel Best, a professor of sociology and criminal justice at the University of Delaware. Nationwide, there were more than 40 violent deaths at schools in 1993, according to figures from the National School Safety Center. In 2001, that number was 15, the center reported.

Extractions: Drawstrings on Jackets and Sweatshirts: There should be no drawstrings on hoods or around the neck. Drawstrings at the waist or bottom of jackets should extend no more than 3 inches to prevent catching in car and school bus doors or getting caught on playground equipment. Loops on Window Blind Cords: Cut the loop and attach separate tassels to prevent entanglement and strangulation in window blind cords. One child a month strangles and dies in the loop of a window blind cord. Bike Helmets: Buy a helmet that meets one of the safety standards (U.S. CPSC, Snell, ANSI, ASTM, or Canadian), and insist that your children wear the helmet each time they ride their bike. About 900 people, including more than 200 children, are killed annually in bicycle-related incidents, and about 60 percent of these deaths involve a head injury. More than 500,000 people are treated annually in U.S. hospital emergency rooms for bicycle-related injuries. Research indicates that a helmet can reduce the risk of head injury by up to 85 percent. Soccer Goals: Make sure that the athletic director or the custodian anchors the soccer goals into the ground so that the soccer goal will not tip over and crush a child.

Extractions: Back to School Safety Tips Since many children will be going back-to-school after the Labor Day Weekend, I wanted to take this opportunity to discuss a very serious problem many of our children face daily on their way to school: dangerous road crossings. Tragically, studies have found that " school-age pedestrians are the group at greatest risk of being involved in an accident." As parents, there are steps we can take to make sure our children, and all children, arrive and return safely from school. Too Close To Home Recently, a nine-year old neighborhood girl named Erica was tragically struck by a van and killed about 2 blocks away from our home. She was on her way to school, and had to cross a very busy intersection by herself. Ever since this accident occurred, a group of concerned parents, including myself, have volunteered to help cross the children in the morning and afternoon. Most of us are stay-at-home parents with children of our own who cross this very dangerous intersection. Making a Difference Can parents make a difference? I believe we can. Our parent support group has received a lot of media attention in the last few days. Our local newspaper

Extractions: Boston Following Labor Day Weekend, lighter summer traffic conditions end as returning vacationers become commuters on local roads, school buses wind their way through neighborhoods, and a new crop of 16-18 year-olds make their first drives to school as licensed drivers. To safely navigate Labor Day holiday and back-to-school driving challenges, Secretary of Public Safety James P. Jajuga and the Massachusetts Governors Highway Safety Bureau (GHSB) have issued Survive the Drive tips for back-to-school safety. A June 2002 study conducted by the National Academy of Sciences concluded that the most dangerous way to get to and from school is with a teenager behind the wheel. According to the study, the majority (55%) of traffic deaths on the way to and from school happen when a teenager is driving, although teen drivers account for just 14% of such trips. By contrast, school buses account for 25% of trips to school, but just 2% of child deaths on the way to school. Parents and students can start the school year off right by putting driving safety - especially buckling up - at the top of their back-to-school lists, said Governor Jane Swift. Weve issued a list of back-to-school road safety tips that parents and students should follow for a safe school year.

As you head back to school this year, you may have more to think about than what you'll wear. There's the all-important matter of how you'll dress the car you drive. Your car décor says a lot about you. It conveys a message to everyone who sees you. "She's patriotic," it says. Or, "He's got a sense of humor." Or maybe, "He's got a night job as a lounge singer." But all of this appearance stuff pales in comparison to the importance of the way you actually drive. That's where substance trumps style, every time. Not to single you out, but(Here's where you get singled out). A June 2002 National Academy of Sciences study says that the most dangerous way to get to or from school is with a teenager behind the wheel. The majority of traffic deaths on the way to or from school (55%) happen when a teenager is driving, even though teen drivers account for just 14% of such trips. In Massachusetts, more than a quarter of fatal crashes involve drivers ages 16-25 and most teen crash injuries occur in the hours immediately after school, between 3 and 6 p.m.
Back To School Driving Safety
Article about Children on Their Way back to school, Survey SuggestsThat Adults May Need a Lesson in Driving safety.
http://www.womanmotorist.com/sfty/sk-2002-school-safety.shtml

Extractions: A Lesson In Driving Safety By Sandra Kinsler Once again it's nearly time for children to return to school. A survey suggests that adults need to become more aware of activity near school zones and school bus stops. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), students are at much greater risk traveling to and from school than at any other time in their school day. Interestingly, the survey found that 15 percent of respondents say they personally know of a child who has been injured or killed waiting for or getting on/off a school bus. The survey demonstrated that drivers' behaviors, particularly when driving through school zones during school hours, need to become more attuned to: 1. Don't be distracted while driving during the school year. 35 percent of respondents with children said they have turned around to reprimand a child while carpooling or driving children to school.

Extractions: Americans have always believed that schools should be safe havens for children. Although schools are safer than many other places in our communities, children still suffer injuries related to such things as falls, playground injuries, sports injuries, and from violence. There are many ways that these injuries can be prevented. This website is being developed for the public and community groups to provide access to information and resources provided by many organizations that work to prevent injuries. In the coming months we will post many more entries about ways to prevent injuries and ensure safety in schools.
