Each student will receive a bicycle helmet and a t-shirt. Classes will visit the Waukee Police & Fire Departments for tours traveling on school buses.

A miniature ‘City' will be used to teach students correct street crossing techniques using tricycles (as vehicles) and by walking.

Students will learn about safety and have much one-on-one contact with volunteers during this weekly course. There will also be a short graduation ceremony at the end of the class for parents to attend.

We look forward to this program educating our pre-kindergarten students to prepare them for obstacles they will meet both on the streets and in schools.
