SAFETY SCHOOL REMINDERS
Precinct 5 has reached out to several school districts within our area in an effort to address some of the concerns they face throughout the school year. Deputy Constables will be aiding school district police in providing traffic enforcement, as well as providing a police presence in and around various schools. I would like to share some suggestions with all drivers that will not only help you, but will hopefully make the roadways and school zones safer for everyone throughout the school year. Drivers should bear in mind the special safety needs of pedestrians, especially our children. This becomes critical in and around school’s zones. Generally, pedestrians have the right-of-way at all intersections; therefore, you as a driver are obligated to exercise extreme care and caution to avoid striking pedestrians with your vehicle.
When the warning flashers are blinking in a school zone, you are required by law to stop and yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing the roadway within a marked crosswalk or at an intersection with or without a marked crosswalk. Always follow the directions of school patrol signs, school patrol officers or designated crossing guards. It is against state law to pass a school bus while the red flashing lights are activated, whether it is loading or unloading passengers. If a roadway is divided, the lanes on the other side, moving in the opposite direction of the bus, may proceed with caution. However, traffic traveling in the same direction behind the school bus MUST stop. Never pass a stopped school bus on the right, whether loading or unloading. It is illegal and could have tragic consequences.
Pedestrian and vehicular traffic is extremely high around schools and children are the least predictable of pedestrians. They can be difficult to see and at times, may dart in front of a car without warning. Take extra care to look out for children, not only in school zones, but wherever you may be driving.
School buses use yellow flashing lights to alert motorists of their intent to stop and either load or unload children. This is an indicator for you to begin stopping as well. Motorists that speed up in an effort to pass the bus before it’s lights change to flashing red, create an extremely dangerous situation.
Remember, vehicles stopped for a red light should not block crosswalks. Blocking a crosswalk forces pedestrians to walk around your vehicle and puts them in a potentially dangerous situation. Again, this becomes especially risky for children who may or may not be paying attention to traffic.
The area immediately around a stopped school bus is one of particular concern for a child’s safety. Be aware of this. As previously stated, children are unpredictable. They are usually very comfortable with their surroundings when walking to and from the bus and often will not be watching for vehicles. They are more likely to take risks, ignore hazards

Lastly, remember that texting or talking on a handheld cell phone while driving is not only dangerous, but it is illegal within a school zone. Please put cell phones away and watch for other drivers, pedestrians and our children. No conversation, or amount of time saved by aggressive driving, is worth the safety of a child.
GARDENING TIPS FOR OCTOBER
• Dig and store caladiums before the foliage dies. Allow the bulbs to dry in the shade, shake off the dried soil and dust with sulphur to control fungus. Store by hanging in open mesh bags or old panty hose. • Flowers planted for spring can begin when the temperatures are going to stay cooler. Shrubs and trees can be planted now. Woody plants concentrate on root growth through the winter and the more headstart they can get before summer, the better. • October 15th is about the time for dividing and planting daylilies. • Watch out for brown patch in St. Augustine grass. These circular brown patches are caused by a fungus that is activated by moist cool weather. Control with Daconil. • If you need to do any pruning, do it early in the month. The re-growth stimulated by pruning needs to harden off before that odd-ball frost of Halloween. Prune fruit trees when leaves begin to fall. Remove all dead, weak and over-crowded growth. Tip back main branches to control size and shape. Spray w/dormant oil when temperature is between 30-60 degrees. • Cut back tops of perennials after they have bloomed. Divide roots and transplant anytime from now until March, the earlier the better. • Get the ant baits down. This will greatly reduce your spring populations. • Clover left over from last year may be growing. It’s best to hit it with the post-emerge herbicides in October and November. At least two applications are usually needed, even if done this early. • For color throughout the winter, begin planting pansies.

Mac Wellman’s Dracula: By Mac Wellman, Directed by Jennifer Decker. October 15th-17th, 22nd-24th and 29th- 31st at 8 PM. Special matinee October 25th at 3 PM and Pay-What-You-Can night on October 26th at 8 PM. Mac Wellman’s bizarre and offbeat version of DRACULA completely revamps Bram Stoker’s classic novel. Campy and fun, it is the story of two sexually repressed women who find freedom and passion in the vampiric world in the late days of Victorian London. The show was one of Mildred’s Umbrella’s earliest productions and was originally staged by the company in 2004.

HOUSTON FAMILY ARTS CENTER ASKS AUDIENCES,‘WHAT’S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?’ IN 2015-2016
“What’s wrong with this picture?” is the playful theme and question attached to each show in Houston Family Arts Center’s (HFAC) 2015-2016 season. Entering its 10th mainstage season, HFAC orchestrated a line-up of allencompassing shows that highlight the theatre’s award-winning musical expertise, all while enveloping theatre experiences full of odd, zany, mystical and dramatic turmoil audiences love. The first half of the season as follows: 2015 October 16-November 8, 2015: “Into the Woods” The fairy tale classics of Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Rapunzel and Little Red Riding Hood are weaved into an original, charming, musical tale of a couple’s journey to break a wicked witch’s curse. Will the baker and his wife be able to break the witch’s spell? November 27-December 20, 2015: “It’s a Wonderful Life” George Bailey spends his life giving up big dreams on behalf of his community. Overwhelmed by family obligations, George uncovers an opportunity to save his town but a mistake finds himself in a disparaging situation. George’s guardian angel, Clarence, who hasn’t earned his wings, takes George on a journey to discover his “wonderful life.” All performances are on the HFAC Garza Mainstage, recently named “Houston’s Best Gem of a Theatre” by the Houston Press, except for Peter Pan, which will be performed at the Berry Center.

Join a group of people dedicated to improving the lives of children. If you are searching for a good cause to lend a hand to, you need look no further. Houston Children’s Charity is a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for underprivileged, abused and disabled children who have been otherwise left behind. The scope of our support is limited only by the availability of resources. Our goal, the rainbow that we chase, is to leave no legitimate request for assistance unanswered. Do you have the time and desire to volunteer to help a great cause? We are always in need of volunteers to help throughout the year. This is a great way for school age kids to get in community service hours. Do you have gently used children’s clothing, shoes and jackets? At Houston Children’s Charity we are setting up the “HCC Closet.” All of the items donated will be given to children – not sold at a retail store. Please contact our office at 713-524-2878 or visit our website www. houstonchildrenscharity.org for more information on our organization.
STANDUP FOR KIDS
How would you feel if you saved a kid’s life? StandUp For Kids is an all volunteer organization dedicated to saving the lives of at-risk and homeless kids through volunteer outreach efforts. Our volunteers search the streets in order to find, stabilize and otherwise help homeless and street kids improve their lives. Every day throughout the US thirteen kids die on the streets from abuse, disease and suicide. According to recent statistics Houston has up to 2,500 kids living on the streets at any given time. Texas has the highest rate of homeless youth in the U.S. StandUp For Kids needs supplies for our Houston program, which provides food, clothing, counseling and a safe environment for the homeless youth of Houston. If you or your organization would like to hold a food or clothing drive for StandUp For Kids, please contact me at HeatherE@standupforkids.org to learn more about StandUp For Kids or how you can help, visit our website at www.standupforkids.org. The single greatest need, for homeless and street kids is our continuous caring and real support. We must convince them that we care, we want them back and we want to help them get off the streets.
