Herriman Elementary's Safety Committee has outlined safe walking routes for students to follow when walking to school. Please study the Safe Walking Route Map carefully. It is advised for parents to make several "run throughs" with their children of how they will be walking to school. Please note the three way stop at the corner of 6000 West and 100 South that has been installed with two crosswalks. Parents should help children understand the need for caution at all times. Children should never walk in the street. Children should walk along the side of the road within the white-striped walking lane or use sidewalks where they exist. In most places the county has widened the road for the walking path. Busses are available for students that live one and a half miles from the school. If you ride the bus and decide to walk we strongly encourage students to walk on the safe route provided.

The Safety Committee however, recommends that due to the high traffic on 5600 West and the fact that there is no crossing gaurd on 5600 West and 13100 South, parents are encouraged to drive their students.

Herriman Village: The Safety Committee recommends that due to the high traffic on 5600 West and the fact that there is no crossing gaurd on 5600 West and 13100 South, parents are encouraged to drive their students.

Students that are eligable for bus transportation schould always ride the bus. This will assure them that they will avoid any unsafe situations.

Parents/gaurdians should review and walk the safe walking routes with their children.
