Safety first: Walkers helped across busy street

ELDORA – Crossing a busy street on the way to school can be scary for some, but Ann Clemons, paraeducator at Eldora-New Providence Elementary will be a morning mainstay at the corner of Edgington Avenue and 10th Street, stopping traffic and helping kids safely make their way across the busy street.

On a breezy morning the first week of school, three walkers took advantage of Clemons’ position, and Ella Owens, fifth-grade, Breken Koppes, second grade and Brooklyn Koppes, kindergarten, safely crossed the street.
