Summer Vacation Is Over
Stay Safe as the School Year Kicks Off –
Classes resumed for kindergarten through grade 12 on Wednesday, August 21 at all Piedmont schools. Crossing guards are in place to assist students crossing some of the busiest intersections. Parents should remind students to look both ways – and look both ways again when crossing the street, even when a crossing guard is present. Motorists are reminded to reduce their speed in a school zone to 15 MPH whenever students are present.
The City provides School Crossing Guards at several key intersections under a contract approved by the City Council with All City Management Services. Any problems with crossing guard performance should be reported to the Watch Commander at the Piedmont Police Department, (510) 420-3000.
