Student Yard Sign Design Contest
Overview of Student Yard Sign Design Contest
The Massachusetts Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Program’s Yard Sign Design Contest is a way for students to use their creativity to help promote safe roads for cyclists and pedestrians in their communities.
Here’s how: Students create and submit a design for a yard sign that brings awareness to distracted driving. With the recent passing of hands-free legislation for electronics (Mass. General Laws, Chapter 90 Section 13B), we want the students to focus their designs on eliminating distracted driving, especially in and around school zones. Signs may be hand drawn or created digitally. Four winners will be chosen, and the winning designs will be made into yard signs for distribution to SRTS partner schools around the Commonwealth.
