With nearly 17,000 kids riding the bus to school every day in Chatham-Kent and Lambton County, officials are reminding everyone to be safe. 
Today marks the start of National School Bus Safety Week.
Chatham-Kent-Lambton Administrative School Services – or CLASS – is asking parents, students, school staff and motorists to recognize the importance of drivers and school bus safety this week, and give a special ‘thank you’ to the drivers who ensure kids get to and from school safely every day.
