During the week of March 20th, we celebrated College Week. Students participated in a variety of ways including daily trivia announcements, March Madness Bracket Challenge, College Week Bulletin Board, Trivia Handouts, and a School-Wide Kahoot on colleges and careers.

BusPatrol is a program approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation that seeks to curb dangerous motorist behavior around school buses and make the journey to and from school safer for all student riders. As part of the BusPatrol program, all Souderton Area School District school buses have safety technology cameras, including stop-arm enforcement cameras. This safety technology is designed to capture school bus violation events. A stop-arm violation will carry a fine. Violations are confirmed by local law enforcement.

The BusPatrol program is entirely funded by fees from stop-arm violations.

Additional information is available on the Souderton Area School District website under transportation.
