SCHOOL OPENS WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 7, 2011  Port Washington School District website: http://www.portnet.k12.ny.us AAA School's Open Fact Sheet The majority of child pedestrian fatalities occur at non-intersections. Contributing factors include a child's tendency to dart into the street without looking for oncoming traffic and little instruction for children on the right way to cross the street. In 2001, the National SAFE KIDS Campaign collected and analyzed data from more than 9,000 walkability checks completed by parents and children across the country. The survey findings reveal that nearly 60 percent of parents and children encountered at least one serious hazard along their routes to school.
