Salon B
Students living in the urban setting often come from other countries and they are not accustomed to our customs and culture. Therefore, students are not aware of the pedestrian, bus, bicycle safety measures that can keep them and their family safe. Come to this session to be a part of the conversation with one Physical Education teacher who has spent 26 years teaching students about safety. Participants will learn 3 pedestrian safety issues students are not familiar with, discuss the “I Walk To School Day” program, be given several examples of programs tried over the past several years and hear about 3 organizations that can assist them in their quest to educate students.
