#SchoolBusSafetyWeek
It's #SchoolBusSafetyWeek, and we want to share a few reminders.
School safety starts at the bus stop. 🚌 🛑 Share these tips with your children:
⌚ Arrive at the bus stop five minutes early.
🚏 Stand five giant steps away from the curb.
🚌 Wait until the bus stops, the door opens, and the driver says it’s okay before
stepping onto the bus.
👁 Be sure the bus driver can always see you, and you can see the bus driver.

Attention home school/private school parents/guardians:
****A message from Mrs. Dewey****
Parents/Guardians,
I told you last month that we had additional plans coming for ways to address school safety, student social media use, etc. One of these plans is an upcoming expert speaker who will share with local parents and guardians about the risks of social media for children.
This presentation will take place on Monday, November 11 from 6-7:30 p.m. in Dunbar Auditorium.
Due to the nature of some of the content, children will not be allowed in the presentation, but I am grateful to the MHPTO group for agreeing to provide onsite childcare during this event for those who need it. This presentation is tiered as far as ages go, so parents with children of any age will find it beneficial.
Thanks again to the MHPTO for helping us secure this speaker and for supporting our families in need of childcare during the event.
Allyson Dewey
Superintendent
This is a FANTASTIC opportunity for parent/guardian education -- especially in light of recent social media issues in our area and across the country. Keep in mind, this presentation is for parents/guardians/adult community members only, as there will be explanations of content that might not be suitable for children.
Want to join our team? Join us on Tuesday, October 15 in Dunbar Auditorium from 4-6 p.m. for a job fair!

Our annual flu clinics will be held at all MHPS campuses next week. These clinics are conducted by the Arkansas Department of Health. Packets have been distributed to every student, but if you need a copy, you may contact your child's school nurse to get one. Please fill the packet out completely and send it back to your child's nurse before the clinic date.
