Bicycle Etiquette 101

When your student chooses to ride his or her bike to school please reinforce the following safety reminders:

• You must walk your bike at all times when on school grounds
• Helmets keep you safe and should be worn at all times
• Use a bike lock
• When riding your bike on the very narrow sidewalks always inform walkers when you are approaching them from behind. Politely stating, “On your left,” alerts a walker that you will pass them on the left side. This helps to ensure both individuals are safe.
