For School Educators

Education Resources Overview

As an educator, you teach your students to strive for excellence, pursue their interests and to be safe and responsible citizens. Operation Lifesaver has developed classroom lessons teaching safety around highway-rail grade crossings and railroad tracks. Your students will take critical information they learn from you into their future; Operation Lifesaver wants to help you make sure their future is a safe one.

Lesson Plans

• Lesson Plans are available for all age groups ranging from Pre-K through 12th Grade
