    2024 DRIVING SAFELY INTO THE FUTURE

    K-8 students are encouraged to submit a poster to the district contest by April 5, 2024.

    The NASD Transportation Department and the NA Health & Safety Committee invite students to participate in the North Allegheny School Bus Safety Poster Contest. All posters collected by NASD representatives will be submitted to PennDOT for the National School Bus Safety Week Poster Contest. PennDOT will enter the five first-place winning posters from the state competition into the National School Bus Safety Week Poster Contest. This year’s theme is “Driving Safely into the Future”.

    Thousands of school districts in over 40 states participate in local and state-level competitions to select artwork that depicts school bus safety-related themes and encourages and promotes school bus safety. The winning posters are used to promote safer school transportation for everyone. For more information about the National School Bus Safety Week Poster Contest, visit the NAPT website.
