School Crossing Guards

The school crossing guards who are posted throughout the school year are trained by police officers and help to ensure the safety of our children as they make their way to and from school.  The crossing guards are posted at Kingston Ave and East Main St, Kingston Ave and Hamilton St and Kingston Ave and Ryan St from 8am-9am and 3:00pm-4:00pm on regular school days.  A guard is also posted at East Main St and Pennsylvania Ave from 7:00am-7:30am and 2:00pm-2:30pm.  During half days, the crossing guards shift is adjusted to 11:00am-12:00pm and 10:00am-10:30am respectively.  These guards have full authority to direct vehicular and pedestrian traffic and all motorists and pedestrians are reminded to obey their directions at all times.  Questions or concerns about the School Crossing Guard program can be brought to the attention of the police department at (845) 856-5101.
