February 2024​​​
At our January 24th PTSA General Meeting, we had two speakers present on student safety, specifically addressing the issue of crossing guards availability at and adjacent to the schools. The school system is currently conducting a transportation study that, among other things, seeks to determine the most challenging streets and roads for students going to and coming from schools. The study’s completion date is undetermined, but hopefully will be ready for public review by the end of this calendar year.
If parents or other interested parties have specific questions about school safety relating to student pedestrians and/or crossing guards, please contact:​
Sergeant Sean W. Lewis, Prince George’s County Police Department, Special Services and Crossing Guards Section,
SWLewis@co.pg.md.us, Mobile: 240-695-4494
