School zone lights will start flashing Wednesday, June 10, at all North East ISD campuses to warn drivers to slow down for students attending summer school. School zones will be in effect at all campuses, whether flashers are in place or not.

Starting June 10, 2009, school zone lights will flash from 7 to 9 a.m. and from 11 to 1 p.m. at North East elementary and middle school campuses from Monday through Thursday. Lights will flash from 7:30 to 9:30 a.m. and from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. for the Bilingual Summer Program. School zones for high school campuses will flash from 7 to 9 a.m., 11:15 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 4:45 to 5:45 p.m. In addition to the six campuses serving as summer school sites, all North East schools serve as collection points for students to board buses and ride to the campuses offering the summer programs. Although the schools may appear empty, students will be walking in the area to board buses at these collection points, requiring vehicles to slow down as they approach.
