"WALK TO SCHOOL" event at Deanna Davenport Elementary

EL PASO, TX - On November 2, 2023, the deputies from Northwest Patrol Station and Traffic section actively participated in the "Walk to School" Day event. This event was organized in collaboration with the staff from Injury Prevention and Safe Kids of the University Medical Center of El Paso, who had previously delivered presentations to the children. The deputies kindly emphasized to the children the importance of consistently utilizing the sidewalks, adhering to the regulations of the road by obeying traffic signs and signals, crossing streets exclusively at designated crosswalks, and diligently practicing the habit of looking in both directions before crossing any thoroughfare. Subsequently, the deputies, along with the teachers and staff, accompanied the children to a nearby park in order to effectively showcase and reinforce the knowledge. It was a very positive experience as the children showed they had learned how to walk to school safely.
