About the Committee
Keeping a school safe requires a coordinated effort among all key players. Through practical activities, we can all play an active and supportive role in improving school safety. The “In Safe Hands” Committee, consisting of parents, teachers and students, regularly meets to prioritize safety concerns and select goals. Safety must be cultivated-it requires an ongoing process within the school’s culture.

Student Work
The following article, written by a 5th grade student, points out a very real safety concern in our Laguna Road parking lot.
MAKING OUR PARKING LOT SAFER
Imagine this, you’re walking across Laguna Road parking lot with your kid and a car is coming and the driver is on the cell phone. You may wonder what to do. Does the driver notice me? Are they going to stop? What should I do?I think kids are in danger of getting hit in our school parking lot. Too many people are driving way too fast in the parking lot and too many people are not paying attention to where they are going. I think this is because there are a lot of people talking on cell phones.
I believe drivers shouldn’t talk on cell phones in the parking lot. If drivers don’t talk on cell phones they can pay attention to where they are going and have a lower risk of hitting someone. Everyone will be safer because everyone will be paying attention to where they are going.
