a German Black Forest Cherry Cake; Heather Gryziec and Nicole
Hayden, who prepared French cream puffs; and Don Holdredge and
Bobby Lorah, who prepated a Spanish caramel flan. Second place

Teach children to
walk safely to school
Parents should not only show
children the way to school, they
should also teach them to get there
safely, advises the Valley Automo-
bile Club.
It's important for parents to walk
first-time and very young students
to school or to the bus stop several
times, even if they insist that they
know the way,” said Patrick J.
Higgins, Safety Director. “Decide
on the safest route to school, point
out possible traffic hazards and
establish safe walking habits.”
. Higgins reminds all motorists to
be especially alert in the vicinity of
school crossings because young-
sters can be unpredictable. Inquisi-
tive. impulsive and fast, they may
dart out between parked cars, from
behind shrubbery or other obstruc-
tion.
“Children have arelatively short
attention span, especially in the
early grades. Even if they know all
the safety rules, they are likely to
forget them when pursuing a wind-
tossed school paper or favorite toy”,
said Higgins.
First-time students are particu-
larly vulnerable since they lack
experience in traffic and have not
yet fully developed the ability to

7%
Food service art contest winners
judge vehicle stopping distances
accurately.
Collisions are the leading cause
of death for youngsters 15 and
younger, claiming nearly 44,000
lives in the last decade. Approxi-
mately 70 percent of these traffic
incidents occur on the way to school
and in the afternoon between 3-6
p.m.
Nearly half the deaths and inju-
ries of pedestrians between the
ages 5-14 occurred between inter-
sections in 1990 (the latest year for
which statistics are available),
noted Higgins. Incidents like these
occur, in part, because students
get careless or act impulsively.
The Valley Automobile Club
offers these additional tips to
remind motorists to drive cau-
tiously when school is open:
e Watch for school zones that
limit driving speed and turns dur-
ing specific hours.
* Pay attention to adult school
crossing guards and AAA School
Safety Patrol members stationed
at key intersections. Patrol mem-
bers can be identified by their bright
orange belts.
e Obey local traffic laws con-
cerning school buses.
Lindsay Pearson and Lauren Atherholt recently won the Art
‘Contest at the Lehman-Jackson Elementary School sponsored by
Pennsylvania Food Services Association. Shown from left, Janet
Eddy, head of Food Services at the school presents Pearson, 5th
grade and Atherholt, kindergarten, with the awards. One hundred
and sixteen students entered the contest. Pearson and Ather-
fholt's works will be entered at the state level along with other
award winners from the district.
