Green Ribbon Week September 27th-October 1

What is Green Ribbon Month?

The Green Ribbon Month Campaign is a program that focuses on children's pedestrian safety. In the 1990's 75 Utah children were killed in pedestrian/motor vehicle crashes. Governor Michael Leavitt signed a proclamation designating September as Green Ribbon Month in the State of Utah. The Davis County SAFE KIDS Coalition developed and promoted this program in 1998 and the program is now being implemented in various counties statewide.

Our goals include:
  • educating children on proper pedestrian practices;
  • increasing public awareness of the laws and guidelines currently in place to protect pedestrians;
  • increasing the standards set within the State which determine the mandatory need for crosswalks, safety lights, signage, and crossing guards;
  • decreasing and eventually eliminating the number of children injured and killed due to pedestrian related incidents.

The year is jammed pack full of activities.  The only thing we are missing is YOU!  There are many ways to get involved at WHE.  You can volunteer in your child’s classroom, as an office volunteer, a lunchroom volunteer or join one of the committees that we have available. I would like to personally invite each parent to become a member of the PTA and attend our monthly PTA meetings.  Join us the last Monday of every month at 3:45 in the faculty room.  Your membership in the PTA is the best way for you to stay informed of issues that affect our children.  If you would like to be added to our email group, please send us an email at westhavenpta@gmail.comWe look forward to hearing from you!
