OAR 581-021-0100: School Traffic Patrols

(1) School traffic patrols will be operated in accordance with the guidelines described in the Oregon Traffic Patrol Manual published by the Oregon Department of Education. (2) Upon a school district request, staff assigned to the School Traffic Patrol Program will distribute equipment supplied by the Oregon Highway Division; staff will also provide help for existing patrols, and help establish and train new patrols. (3) A school district may request that section (1) of this rule be waived and that the district be allowed to operate a school traffic patrol in accordance with district guidelines. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction may approve such a waiver upon submission of evidence that by following district guidelines, school traffic patrols can be operated as efficiently and with no reduction in student safety as compared to guidelines in Oregon Traffic Patrol Manual.
