Safety Patrol

The School Safety Patrol is an organization sponsored by AAA insurance, is consists of selected boys and girls from the upper elementary grades who help their schoolmates to avoid street traffic accidents. Fundamentally, the Patrol member’s job is to remind children of safety rules. They also remind drivers of the presence of pedestrians.

Parents’ permission for service on the Patrol is required. The selected boys and girls are instructred and trained carefully in their duties and designated positions. Patrol members must be at their designated posts every school day according to their time schedule and post location.

The 7th & 8th grade students have the opportunity to participate in the School Safety Patrol program. After studying a rule book and passing the membership test, the 7th grade students shadow all of the patrol positions and learn each job. The 8th grade students continue to be patrols but do not have to be retested. The students are assigned a position for 2 week time periods and alternate between 7th and 8th grade patrols. Each student must try (dependent upon transportation) to patrol all positions at some point during the school year. If they cannot patrol, they must find their own replacement.

Two students are selected to be Safety Patrol Captains. Other teacher recommendations are taken into account to help determine who becomes safety patrol captains. Captains are determined by the safety patrol sponsor. Organization, honesty and character play a major role in the decision.

Congratulations to both Jenna and Madi.

School Safety Patrol membership is an honored position. As a reward for participation and performance of patrol duties, the 7th & 8th grade patrol members are given an annual Safety Patrol field trip to Busch Stadium to watch a Cardinals Game.
