Los Alamos Public Schools ask that families discuss safety issues. Take the time to talk about the idea of “See Something, Say Something.”
Students are the ones most likely to first become aware of a possible problem in their school. But knowing a problem doesn’t do any good unless you tell someone who’s in position to do something about it. Remember, reporting a concern is very different from gossiping or “snitching”. Reporting what you see may save a life, while just talking with your friends about what you’ve seen won’t help anything.

Bus Safety
LAPS is promoting Bus Safety. Know the rules. A red flashing light with the extended stop arm means traffic is required to stop, even in both directions of a two-lane road. Stop for the School Bus. It’s the law. Students riding the school bus should also understand the bus rules.
Notification System
LAPS uses the School Messenger system to notify parents about issues that impact the safety and academic performance of students. Make sure your information is up-to-date so that you continue to receive these important notifications.
