TMES Safety Patrol Starts Monday, October 18, 2021
The School Safety Patrol (SSP) program is governed by Chula Vista Elementary School District and is operated by the individual schools with the assistance and guidance of the Chula Vista Police Department. The primary responsibility of the SSP is to assist students in safely crossing the streets while going to and from school. On Monday, October 18, 2021, we will have our first squad on duty in over one year. We are very excited as this will help support traffic in and around campus. Our Safety Patrol Mustangs will be on duty at San Lucas and MacKenzie Creek for arrival and departure between 8:30 a.m. – 8:45 a.m. Students will be wearing red and white.
Califonia Ed Code 49304 authorizes Safety patrol to give traffic signals and directions to assist school pupils in safely crossing streets and highways. Please be respectful, listen, and courteous to our Safety Patrol members as they are responsible for ensuring everyone’s safety to and from campus. While on duty, members of patrol can not socialize with friends or community members. It is essential to remember to observe the crosswalks and follow the directions of the safety patrollers.
If you have questions and or concerns regarding Patrol members, please direct concerns to the coordinator or front office and not the students on duty.
