Volume 105 - Port Perry, Ontario, Wednesday, July 7, 1971 - No. 37 Select Pupils For Patrol Duty The question of School; practices at all times Safety Patrols, discussed in council and reported in the Star on several occasions has finally come to an agreeable and happy conclusion. Last week 41 upper grade students at R.,.H. Cornish Public School were sworn in to perform this duty next fall, following a thorough training period. The future success of this programme requires concerted action by parents, teachers and the community in educa- ting the children to meet Pedestrian and vehicular pro- blems. Members of Schoo! Safety Patrols are not crossing guards. They must not be charged with the responsibility of directing vehicular traffic, nor should they be allowed to direct it. The functions of School Safety Patrols are to instruct, direct and contro! the mem- bers of the students body in crossing the streets and high- ways at or near schools; and to assist teachers and parents in the instruction of school children in safe pedestrian The Patrol member should stand back of the curb - not in the street and remind the children to wait until he sees an adequate gap in the traffic. When the gap occurs he should step aside and motion for the children to cross the street in a group. The Safety Patrol now sworn in will operate on Queen Street, not on Highway 7A as first was recommended. This change came following a study conducted by Ontario County Board of Education | 'with the co-operation of the Whitby Detachment of the OPP. Both bodies warned against a Patrol on Highway 7A, due to excessive and speedy traf- fic. Port Perry Council at@ recent meeting agreed with this view following a presenta- tion by Board Trustee, Gordon Goode and the new Director of Education, Kenneth Munro. The present Crossing Guard, R. McLean on Queen Street, will from September on be operating on Highway 7A, while a School Safety Patrol will function on Queen Street.
