Powder River Examiner -

By Broadus Schools Principal Denise Ternes

BIKE SAFETY will take place Monday, September 21st to October 2nd during PE. All students K-6 bring bicycles to school by Monday, September 21st. Bring your own helmet. If you don’t have one, Mr. Coulter will provide one. All bikes and helmets must have a name tag. Please go over the rules for riding bikes in town. All bikes must be ready to ride on the street in traffic - tires stay up, brakes work, chain is reliable. Bikes should be picked up on Friday, October 2nd, or Saturday, October 3rd if your child is riding in the Homecoming Parade. Kindergarten students must have a parent riding with them in the parade. Thank you for your support of this excellent lifetime activity!

NEW THIS YEAR - To ensure safety, we need a parent supervisor for each class, K-3 that rides off campus. If you are willing call Tracie at 436-2637 and she will provide specific days and times. Thank you for supporting Bike Safety! Please go over these rules with your student: 1. Bicycles ride on the right like cars. 2. Walk the bike on sidewalks and intersections. 3. Bikes go in the bike rack (not on the ground). 4. Always wear a helmet. 5. Check tires, chain, reflectors, brakes and seat. 6. Students must have bikes ready to ride and must follow directions to be safe or they will stay in classrooms. 7. Wear shoes, not sandals to ride bikes and to PE. Safety first!

**IMPORTANT NOTICE** Please send your signature page for the student handbook/technology agreement back with your student ASAP. We want to be able to check out Chromebooks to your student as soon as the devices are delivered. We also need all contact information updated for our new emergency system.
