The new school year is underway for the Natrona County School District, and that brings safety warnings from school and law enforcement officials alike.

Casper Police and the Natrona County School District have a series of safety videos to help area kids and drivers get back into good safety habits.

School Bus Safety:  Drivers are reminded that it's not only illegal, but also very dangerous, to pass a school bus when its red flashing lights are activated.

Walking and biking safety: School officials say kids are excited about getting back to school and don't always pay attention. Talk to your kids about using the crosswalks, walking with a buddy, and other safety issues.

Remember to obey speed limits in school zones:  Casper Police started early with trying to get drivers back into the habit of watching out for school zones and watching out for kids around those areas.
