Safety Patrol
Selected fifth grade students participate in the AAA Safety Patrol Program. These students were selected by club sponsors for their hard work and ability to influence their peers in a positive way. Safety Patrol students are expected to turn in all assignments on time, maintain honor roll, and demonstrate positive behavior as they work to be a good influence for their fellow students.
