HENRY BRAUN Elementary School

Welcome to the Safety Patrol page. We are pleased to have three patrols at this time. Mr. Beingessner and Mr. Tranberg are the staff members responsible for this team.

Safety Patrol expectations include:

• Set a good example and encourage other students to observe safety rules
  Report for duty on time with proper equipment (vests, signs, whistles)
  Attend and participate in patrol training sessions and meetings
  Be prepared to substitute when you are not assigned to patrol
  Work as a team to provide safe crossings for our school community
  If a patroller cannot do his/her duty, he/she is expected to get a substitute patroller

When on duty, patrols observe the following procedures:

• Stand one step back from the curb facing the street
• Watch for a safe gap in traffic
• One whistle signals putting signs out, two whistles signals back to curb and three whistles means duties are over and proceed to cross holding signs up as you cross
• Patrollers remain on duty for about ten minutes after the 11:45 & 3:30 bell

I am looking forward to working with our safety team. Watch this page for safety news and schedules.
