MATERNAL HEALTH AWARENESS Did you know, that in the U.S. we are experiencing a maternal health crisis, with high rates of pregnancy-related complications and deaths? In 2022, the maternal mortality rate in the U.S. was 22.3 deaths per 100,000 live births, which is higher than other high-income countries. This rate is especially high for Black women, Native women, and women in rural areas, who experience maternal mortality and morbidity at much higher rates than white and urban women. The Maternal health well-being of an expecting mom is important because it can improve the overall health and well-being of both the mother and the child and have economic and social benefits.

SCHOOL BUS SAFETY. School bus safety is important because school buses are one of the safest ways to transport children to school. Tips for school bus safety: ➡ Stop when a school bus has its flashing red lights and stop-arm extended. ➡ Students should arrive at the bus stop at least five minutes before the scheduled pick-up time and stay at least six feet from the curb. ➡ Students should not run around or play at the bus stop, and they should never walk behind a bus. ➡ When crossing the street, students should walk in front of the bus, use the crosswalk, and make eye contact with the driver. ➡ Once on the bus, students should stay in their seats, use seat belts if they are available, and keep their belongings with them. ➡ Students should avoid putting their head or arms out of open windows and should not stand up while the bus is moving.
