Gloucester Township Police Welcomes All Our Students Back To School Today!
The majority of schools in and around Gloucester Township, New Jersey are opening TODAY, so be on the lookout when driving through our neighborhoods.
Drive slowly and watch for children walking in the street, especially where there are no sidewalks. Be aware of children playing or standing at bus stops. Kids are usually taught to look both ways before crossing a street, but they could dart into traffic without looking if they're late or distracted.
School bus red flashing lights and an extended stop-arm signal indicate that the bus has stopped and that children are getting on or off. Drivers MUST stop a safe distance away and not start again until the red lights stop flashing, the stop sign has been folded back, and the bus begins to continue on its way.
