Safety patrol

5th Grade students interested in being community helpers, can volunteer to be a part of our cross walk safety patrol.  Students are responsible for arriving to school a little early and staying a few minutes later, to assist others in crossing the streets to Mendel ES safely.  They wear reflective vests and carry stop signs.  Student work shifts based on the number of students signed up for Safety Patrol.  They do not work every day of every week, but may work one or two weeks before and after school and then have one or two weeks off. 

This is a year-long activity, before and after school.  Students who are a part of Safety Patrol can join other after school activities, but will be a few minutes late arriving to the other activity, on days they are scheduled for Safety Patrol.
