Safety Patrol

The children of the Audubon Elementary Schools are helped in crossing the streets of Audubon by our Safety Patrol. Students are selected based on academic performance, behavior and the teacher's recommendation to serve on the Safety Patrol. Safety Patrol members are posted at key cross-sections and on the school grounds to ensure that children get in and out of the building safely.

Please note that Safety Patrol members will not be utilized to walk kindergarten students from school to corners or homes.

Parent drivers can help the school and the Safety Patrol by the following:

1. Observe extreme caution at all times when driving in the school area.
2. Discharge pupils at the curb so that they exit directly to the sidewalk. Do not allow children to leave the car while stopped in the middle of the street.
3. WHILE WAITING FOR PUPILS, DO NOT PARK IN THE BUS LOADING ZONE OR IN ANY OTHER DESIGNATED NO PARKING AREAS.
4. During inclement weather, traffic in the school area becomes extremely congested. Please be patient and make every effort not to block streets. Because of the volume of traffic on days when the weather is bad, it is critical that drivers be alert to children boarding and being discharged from vehicles.
5. The above parking rules will be enforced by the police to best serve the safety of our students.
6. Please note, safeties will not be on post if the temperature or wind chill is 10° or below, or if other extreme weather conditions dictate.
