Catasauqua Area School District has launched a school bus safety program in partnership with local law enforcement agencies, in accordance with PA Motor Vehicle Code 3345.1. All school buses in the district are equipped with safety technology, including stop-arm enforcement cameras designed to detect vehicles that illegally pass stopped school buses.

This initiative aims to stop dangerous motorist behavior around school buses and make the ride to and from school safer for all student riders.

Help keep every kid safe by obeying all traffic laws.

Lehigh Career and Technical Institute uses an online payment service called MySchoolBucks, which makes it easy for parents/guardians to add money to their student’s school meal account using a credit or debit card. The free service allows parents to view recent purchases, check account balances, schedule automatic payments and set up low balance alerts, eliminating the need to send cash or check to school with students.

Parents/guardians can go to myschoolbucks.com to create and manage their account. A mobile phone app is also available.

If you have questions about how the service works, contact MySchoolBucks directly at 1-855-832-5226 or parentsupport@myschoolbucks.com.
