THIS YEAR, THE FRISCO ISD HAS REZONED SOME OF THE ATTENDANCE BOUNDARIES FOR SOME ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS.
THERE'S ALSO A CHANGE ALONG NORTH COUNTY ROAD WITH THE CLOSURE OF STALEY MIDDLE SCHOOL.
NOT ONLY DID WE REMOVE THE SCHOOL ZONE ON NORTH COUNTY, BUT WE HAD TO MODIFY A SCHOOL ZONE AT EL DORADO AND NORTH COUNTY BECAUSE THAT SCHOOL ZONE IS GOING TO STAY IN PLACE FOR ELEMENTARY STUDENTS.
PLUS, LEWISVILLE ISD HAS CHANGED SCHOOL ZONE TIMES FOR ITS ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS.
THE SCHOOL ZONE FOR HICKS ELEMENTARY IN FAR WEST FRISCO WILL START FIVE MINUTES EARLIER IN THE MORNING AND 20 MINUTES EARLIER IN THE AFTERNOON, WHEN SCHOOL STARTS AND THE SCHOOL ZONES ARE ACTIVE AGAIN, WE WANT TO MAKE SURE AND ASK PEOPLE TO WATCH THEIR SPEED. MAKE SURE YOU'RE GOING 20 MILES AN HOUR IN A SCHOOL ZONE. ALWAYS BE ALERT TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY KIDS GOING TO CROSS AT ANY OF THE CROSSWALKS.
STUDENTS WALKING OR BIKING TO SCHOOL NEED TO BE SURE TO USE CROSSWALKS, FOLLOW TRAFFIC SIGNALS, AND MAKE EYE CONTACT WITH DRIVERS. AND FRISCO ISD NOW BANS STUDENTS FROM RIDING E-SCOOTERS ENFORCING CITY ORDINANCES.
WE ASK THAT PARENTS TALK TO THEIR STUDENTS AND LOOK AT THEIR ROUTE, THAT THEY'RE GOING TO WALK TO SCHOOL AND IF IT INCLUDES ANY CROSSWALKS, ESPECIALLY ANY TRAFFIC SIGNALS, SHOW THEM AND TEACH THEM HOW TO PUSH THE BUTTON.
WAIT FOR THE LIGHT TO CHANGE. TO LEARN MORE ABOUT WALKING OR RIDING TO SCHOOL SAFELY,
