With the 2021 - 2022 school year coming to an end, Sheriff @Jerry Turlich and PPSO reminds everyone that school buses will be transporting children at various times throughout day until May 26. Please be cognizant of these school buses and use caution when students are entering and exiting.

In accordance with Louisiana Revised Statute 32:80 (Overtaking & Passing School Buses), please adhere to all the visual signals of a school bus when activated. Here is a useful infographic from our partners with the Louisiana State Police and Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) displaying the proper procedure when encountering a school bus. Let's continue to work together to ensure the safety of the youth in our community entering summer break.
