Delaware is developing a new School Performance and Support Framework built around a simple idea: schools should get stronger support earlier, and that support should increase as student and school needs grow.
This is a draft, and we want feedback. More: education.delaware.gov/commu…

The most important stop you make today could protect a child. When a school bus stops with its red lights flashing and stop arm extended, Delaware drivers need to stop.
See the red lights. Respect the stop. Protect our students. 🚌

School buses are back on Delaware roads, and keeping students safe is a responsibility we all share. As students head back to classrooms, drivers should watch for flashing lights, give buses plenty of space and know when Delaware law requires them to stop. Slow down. Stay alert.

Delaware school buses travel approximately 20.8 million miles a year, connecting students across the state with schools and communities. When students have a safe, reliable way to get to school, they can focus on learning, growing and reaching their goals. de.gov/edplan

🏈 Don’t rush the play—STOP for the school bus! 🛑
When a bus displays flashing red lights and extends its stop arm, drivers must stop—because a few moments of patience can protect a child’s life.
Red lights flashing? Stop—no exceptions.
