This morning, the Louisiana Highway Safety Commission (LHSC) held a Back-to-School Pep Rally for Safety at Central High School to remind drivers of school bus safety as students return to school this week in the City of Central
.
Lt. Col. Frank Besson with Louisiana State Police provided several safety tips for a safe school year:
- Be attentive to loading/unloading zones
- Adhere to speed limits in school zones
- Exercise caution and watch for students in crossing zones
- Remember that Louisiana Law prohibits the use of cell phones while in a school zone
- Remain vigilant at all times
- Ensure that everyone is properly buckled
Other notable speakers included LHSC Executive Director Lisa Freeman, CCSS Superintendent Dr. Jason Fountain, LA DOTD Secretary Joe Donahue, and LA Dept. of Education Safe and Healthy Schools Director Michael Comeaux.
A special thank you to the CHS cheer team and marching band drumline for their participation.

"While we are flushing you may possibly experience lower pressure than normal and could have a tint in the water. If you use any water in your home during the posted flush times you may draw this water into your plumbing system. Toilets and hot water heaters have tanks that can keep this water around long after we are done. If you continue to have discoloration or cloudy water after the posted flush has ended, please let the cold water tap in your kitchen run for approximately 3-5 minutes. If the cold water in the kitchen is clear and the hot water and toilets still have a tint, they may require a brief flush. If any of these issues continue after the posted flush times, please call us at 225-925-2011."
