Like all good things in life, summer eventually comes to end. While many people consider summer their favorite season, this is likely especially true for kids who aren't looking forward to going back to school. August marks the start of Back to School Month, and with it comes the return of school buses on the road, students making their way across crosswalks and everything else that the start of the school year signifies. Students returning to school will be inundated with new material to learn, but one lesson that can't be glossed over is the value of safety.
