Second Annual Crossing Guard Appreciation
Overview of Second Annual Crossing Guard Appreciation
Crossing Guard of the year nominations are due by March 23, 2022
Crossing guards play an important role supporting our families’ safety as they access schools and neighborhoods across the Commonwealth. Our Second Annual Crossing Guard Appreciation campaign begins with a crossing guard of the year nomination process, followed by Crossing Guard Appreciation Day, and culminates with announcing the Crossing Guard(s) of the Year award winners in April. The overall goal is to draw attention to and honor the hard work of crossing guards across Massachusetts and to recognize those crossing guards who go beyond.
