The Crossing Guard program at the Pearl River Police Department is essential for ensuring the safety of children as they navigate busy roadways around schools. By placing trained crossing guards at key locations, this program promotes safe crossing practices and helps create a secure environment for students, parents, and pedestrians.
Crossing Guards are not only responsible for facilitating safe passage across streets; they also serve as visible safety advocates within the community. By engaging with students and parents during peak drop-off and pick-up times, they foster awareness about road safety and pedestrian rules. Their presence reinforces the importance of following traffic laws and encourages considerate behavior from drivers.
In addition to their primary role of directing traffic and assisting students, Crossing Guards actively communicate with school officials and parents to address any safety concerns. They are trained to manage various situations, including vehicular violations, ensuring all children reach their destinations safely. The dedication of our Crossing Guards is crucial in keeping our roadways secure, especially during high-traffic school hours.
